I find it harder and harder to believe what I read in the Melbourne associated press, regarding what is happening within the current residential real estate market.

There seems to be over the last 4-6 weeks an upward dialogue to talk to the market up, to as usual create this market sense of a “boom” market, get in or you are going to miss out. ‘First home buyers’ can’t buy property because the investor market is buying anything and everything available, “the apartment market is booming”, get in as prices are moving in an upward trend.
