• .Quote from QV dated 11 December 2012:

"The latest monthly property value index shows that nationwide residential values increased further in November (2012). Values are up 1.9% over the past three months, 5.7% up over the past year, and 1.5% above the previous market peak of late 2007."

In Dec 2007 a Registered Valuer valued this property at $245 including standard fixtures. Since that date we have added a cover to the eastern-facing deck, added a dishwasher, replaced the old stove with a new one and landscaped the garden towards minimal care. We have applied the QV figures above to calculate a present value of $249,900. For a quick sale we have set our price at $246,000.
