Recent comment in the media from a range of national and local business personalities contain these consistent messages:

- Renewed business confidence and optimism for 2010
- Our region has worked through the last two challenging years coming through in reasonable shape
- Economic drivers which swing around the dairy industry are looking more positive
- Property market is showing volumes and prices in a "steady as she goes" upward cycle

- Interest rate increases likely in 2010
- Window of opportunity exists right now for sellers and buyers
- Buyer demand is driven by likely interest rate increases
- And more sellers having an understanding of realistic prices
- It's a good time to be putting property on the market, and to be purchasing

Our own volumes continue to show a 30 per cent increase on this time last year.

We are now actively seeking more salespeople to join our Bayleys teams throughout the region as a result.
All the best to you and yours
