Lets talk “Days On Market”
Madeline Kennedy
When an Agent refers to ‘days on market’ they are talking about the number of days a property has been actively advertised. Long story short, in this market the longer it takes to sell the property, the more likely the eventual sale price will be heavily discounted.
When a new property launches, it is exciting and fresh and has maximum eyes on it. As the number of days a property is online increases, the excitement starts to diminish. In the first 14 days it is crucial to have the pricing strategy right in order to attract the best buyers who will likely compete for the property and possibly push the price up under competition.
The longer a property sits on the market, the greater the likelihood that there will be a disconnect from buyers and in many instances seller fatigue. Depending on individual circumstances, a prolonged campaign can put sellers under financial pressure and emotional stress, placing them in a situation where they may give up and eventually accept a lower price.
Along with pricing, there are several other elements important to ensure a successful result. These include presentation, strategic marketing, strong buyer work, efficient follow up and effective communication. In this market, simply advertising a listing online and waiting for the buyers to appear will not maximise the result, in fact quite the opposite. It is a combination of price, strategic marketing, the skill and hard work of your agent that will see a premium result in a timely manner.

RED HILL CFA
We recently met with Sam Norris, Captain of Red Hill CFA to talk about our community and the work our local volunteers do. We respect the fact that Sam was strong about preferring to fly under-the-radar, in saying this, it’s important for us to put a face to the organisation and also to thank him and all CFA volunteers for their dedication and hard work.
This year marks the 85th anniversary of the Red Hill Country Fire Authority (CFA) — a remarkable milestone for an organisation built on dedication, community spirit, and the tireless efforts of unpaid volunteers. For generations, locals have stepped up to serve and protect their community, keeping people and property safe from the threat of fires and emergencies.
Sam, who has been a member of the Red Hill CFA since 2003, now holds the position of Captain after taking over in 2020 from long-serving Captain Daryl Setter. Sam's journey began when a fellow CFA member encouraged him to get involved, saying, “If you're going to live here, you need to help here.” Now, 22 years later, Sam continues to lead with passion and dedication.
As communities in the Red Hill area evolve, there has been a noticeable increase in nonpermanent residents, which limits the pool of available volunteers. Organisations across the Mornington Peninsula are in need of both hands-on support and financial assistance.
After severe storms in the area in 2021, Sam along with other community leaders, established the Hill and Ridge Emergency Network. This network exemplifies the true spirit of community collaboration. The network connects residents during emergencies, streamlines communication, and identifies resources and vulnerable individuals in need of immediate assistance. Currently, the network has 35 streets registered and is supported by three Senior Community Leaders who coordinate communication with Street Leaders. These leaders further disseminate information and organise resources within their streets, which may include accommodation, generators, and animal sheltering. The network’s success lies in its ability to foster a sense of shared responsibility, where everyone works together to keep each other safe.
If you live in the Red Hill area and would like to learn more or join the Hill and Ridge Emergency Network, you can reach out via email at hillandridgenetwork@gmail.com .

I love the diversity of the Mornington Peninsula. I love that I can live with land around me very close to the beach but close enough to Melbourne to still go to the football. I can drive to the supermarket and park right out the front, I can surf before work (or after) and I can meet my wife in the evening for a glass of wine at a winery in one of the most beautiful parts of the country on the way home from work. I love that there is such a community feel.
