    I found this great site today, its a real estate site that you guys might benefit from, it's a property site that's aimed to help buyers as it only shows houses that have recently been reduced in price and how long they have been on the market for, I've never come across a site like this as an investor, just thought you might like to check it out, i have copied some info for you from the site below:

    http://www.discountproperties.com.au is a Real Estate listings site that ONLY lists properties that have been Discounted from their original asking price and have also been on the market for at least 2 months.ALL properties on our site have recently been reduced in price for quick sale …VENDOR SAYS SELL!!

    We show the buyer:

    * Only properties that have recently been Reduced in price by the Vendor for Quick Sale!
    * How much the property has been reduced by
    * The original asking price
    * How long the property has been on the market for (original listing date)
    * Only Properties that have been discounted in price from the original asking price
    * This valuable information has never been released to the public before, until now

    See all properties we have that have been Discounted for quick sale here

    Angiebabe…

    Are you related to this site?

    It just seems a bit odd that you would join today and then post this.

    Is seems to me to be some seeding for something new.

    For what it is worth, what I'd like to know are:

    a. Are the original listing prices genuine? If so, are they independently verified, or is it up to the agents to input?
    b. How much is paid for listing the property on the site?
    c. Why are there so many google ads on the site? Makes it look a bit dodgy.
    d. Who are the people behind the site? On the 'about us' site it doesn't mention names.

    This whole thing seems a little odd.

    i am not related to the site , i suggest you contact  the owners of the site to find out your questions , but i will try for you

    a. Are the original listing prices genuine? If so, are they independently verified, or is it up to the agents to input?
    this data is avaiable to anyone who watches the market and tracks prices – however i do believe it is agent inputed

    b. How much is paid for listing the property on the site?
    free for agents to  signup and list  properties if you went to the site and click on agent sign up you could see that

    c. Why are there so many google ads on the site? Makes it look a bit dodgy.
    Sites list google ads as a form of revenue –  normally  so they can keep their membership fees lower.

    d. Who are the people behind the site? On the 'about us' site it doesn't mention names.
    You need to contact the site directly for this answer their is a contact us page you could have used

    Also i was only posting cause i thought it was interesting and useful for uses  of this site would be interested as i have not seen this site before ….

    This is the second time on the forums for this same info from a different user. I stand by my previous posts that this is pretty dodge. 1.1mil reduced to 225 in an area where the median is around 200k.

    Since almost nothing sells for the listed price, what's the point ?

    i think its great idea , point being thecrest as a buyer you dont  know the original listing price having the price history of a house before you buy i think would be important!

    Yes, I would agree with tarnstar, if a vendor started at $1.2M and is now at $1M after 2 weeks on the market, the odds that they would accept an offer starting with an 8 are quite good as they seem desperate to offload the property.

    I was hoping that someone had developed a system that takes snapshots of realestate.com.au and domain.com.au and then compares the listing numbers over time. If you had this information in a database it could be really useful.

    Looks like these properties are in the middle of nowhere anyway.  Not very useful as investment properties to me…

    Yeah, the assignment says she gets paid $3 for doing this. See here http://74.125.153.132/search?q=cache:vr5yfRuBaTAJ:www.shorttask.com/task.php%3Fid%3D33085+Tane+Taiaroa&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=au&client=firefox-a

    I think Angie would benefit from doing some PI herself!
