Homes Direct - Houses & Homes for Sale - Real Estate Agents in New Zealand
This is the website of Homes-Direct in New Zealand, the website that may in time become the website you will want to visit of you are looking for homes and houses for sale, or homes and houses to buy or purchase in New Zealand.
Until the last couple of years, the New Zealand real estate market has been dominated by a handful of real estate companies that sought to capitalise on their positions in the market by charging some of the highest real estate commissions in the western world. “Governed” and self regulated by the REINZ (Real Estate Institute of New Zealand – an impressive title indeed), many real estate agents in New Zealand have taken advantage of the surge in property prices over the last 4 years, to “make hay while the sun shines”. Real Estate Agents in New Zealand including; Barfoot and Thompson, Harcourts, Ray White, LJ Hooker, Bayleys, The Professionals have now been joined by other smaller real estate agents including MRE Property (otherwise known as Milford Real Estate ), Premium Real Estate, Century 21, Prestige Real Estate, Crockers Real Estate, Go Gecko, ReMax, Harveys Real Estate, Ewsons and First National. They in turn have been joined by commission free real estate marketing agents like Green Door Real Estate, Commission Free and HomeSell, and other real estate companies that charge reduced commission rates like GoGecko.
While many real estate agents in NZ and the REINZ seem reluctant to acknowledge the growing support for the likes of Green Door, GoGecko, Commission-Free and HomeSell, the fact of the matter is that the real estate market seems to need this more cost effect means of selling houses in New Zealand. However the Property Press Magazine also appears reluctant to support this way of buying and selling houses in New Zealand by the fact that they do not appear to take advertisements from real estate angents or companies like Green Door, Commission-Free and HomeSell at the present time, instead appearing to only support the more established real estate agents like Barfoot and Thompson, Harcourts, Ray White, LJ Hooker, Bayleys, The Professionals and others.
Thankfully, few if any, real estate agents in New Zealand, have any real knowledge of the internet, how it works and the opportunities that exist online and this provides the Homes Direct website with the opportunity to consider in which way it can most effectively be used.
Homes Direct could be used for advertising homes and selling houses in New Zealand. It could also be used by people wanting to buy houses in New Zealand. Alternatively it could be the perfect place where people interested in buying houses direct from other Kiwis could come. We are considering all real estate related options at this time.
Open2View is another real estate website in New Zealand that is becoming a bit more popular, However it appears that Open 2 View works more with real estate agents rather than direct with property owners.
While the real estate agents like Barfoot & Thompson, Bayleys, Harcourts, Ray White, LJHooker, The Professionals, and real estate marketing companies like Green Door, GoGecko, Commission-Free and HomeSell and other real estate websites like Open2View, and real estate publications like The Property Press, as well as smaller real estate agents like MRE Property (otherwise known as Milford Real Estate ), Premium Real Estate, Century 21, Prestige Real Estate, Crockers Real Estate, Go Gecko, ReMax, Harveys Real Estate, Ewsons, First National, all do a fine job, we believe that there is more being sought by real estate and property buyers and sellers in NZ.
