Just a recent experience to encourage those who don't believe you can buy under value in Auckland.
saw a property advertised on Trademe. Negotiated a conditional agreement at what I knew was about 50K under current value. Contract at 625K for a 3 beddie in Howick.
Decided on unconditional date to drop property as it wasn't one we "needed" to buy.
Seller came back asking what we would pay for it as they wanted to go unconditional on another property. We advised them to not sell to us but said we would pay 590K.
It is IMPOSSIBLE to buy a 3 bed home in Howick for under 650K anymore so at under 600K how could we say no.
Half hour later they said yes.
Reg val 675K
So always remember there are a thousand reasons why a seller will sometimes sell for less than market.
