John McGregor  2:05  

That's cool. Like, shouldn't it be good to have a couple of experts focused on North Launceston is selling just as intently as fast as the properties in Hobart?

Aaron Horne  2:11  

Yeah, well, our mate Simon Pressley from up in Brisbane. He's always touting launceston as a really good investment space. So it'd be really interesting to kind of talk to Sally and Sam of buyer's agents Tasmania and see what he's talking about. It's right. Yes. other than going for the Brisbane Lions. He's normally pretty spot on.

Aaron Horne  3:01  

Alright guys, that's right. We'll be here with our guests. today. We've got Sally and Sam from buyer's agents Tasmania living kind enough to give us some of their time this morning. So welcome to the show, Sally and Sam,

Sally & Sam  3:11  

thank you for having us excited to be here.

Aaron Horne  3:13  

Not a problem. It's great to actually get you guys on the mic and speak to someone in our home state of Tasmania. That's Yeah, living in another area.

Sally & Sam  3:22  

Yeah, we're born and bred launcestonians; Launceston is crazy at the moment, crazy. Gosh, everyone wants to buy a little slice of Tasmania. I think that statewide, not just lovely launie, but people are very excited for our hometown, which is great for us and great for the industry 

John McGregor  3:44  

Have you found that the conversations around Launceston have changed? 

I mean, I remember, we're only this story came up yesterday, were you 1015 years ago, you'd mentioned you're from Tasmania, and everyone would just, you know, comment in the fact they got two heads, but you'd say the same you say from tazzy now, and they got really tazzy I've always wanted to go there. You know, it's like, so if you find that that story is similar to Launceston as well,

Sally & Sam  4:08  

I think so I had a call. Yes, actually, from a family meeting down and I just can't wait. They've never been here. But here. It's great and can't wait to move here. And so I think it's really changed from nscd briefings and they want to move to like the northwest coast. And they can't wait.

John McGregor  4:24  

Yeah, right. That didn't give you any reason rhyme or reason why they're just excited.

Oh, yeah. Excited work is driven them down as well. But I think it's crazy to think people would laugh at us if we would say we're from Tasmania, when we used to go into state where now they can't wait to come down here and they want to leave here. Never seen it before. Yeah, yes.

Patrick Berry  4:41  

So we've been talking to a lot more buyers on a daily basis. Are you finding that since COVID started and obviously the way works changing a lot more people able to work remotely that that's been able to shift people to move to the state.

Sally & Sam  4:54  

Absolutely. And I think also our purchase prices here. It's yourself horrible to to buy something The Tasmanian market, which is helping and our border controls made us quite a safe place to be during COVID, which I think all of those factors combined. And who wouldn't want to live here? Of course, all of those things have just made us really interesting to people, which is great.

Aaron Horne  5:17  

So we've got to jump straight into the real estate side of things. But can we take a quick step back and just kind of get your story find out about how you guys got into the industry? What kind of beat you with the real estate and buyer's agents kind of, I can't think of the word understand

John McGregor  5:30  

what what how did you get the buyer's agents bug?

Aaron Horne  5:32  

Yeah, that's good. Yeah.

Sally & Sam  5:34  

So I've been a property manager in Launceston and in the real estate industry for 16 years. Well, I've worked in industry for 16 years. So I've always been in property management. And that's how I kind of kind of fell in...
