Underquoting, auction tactics, and market sentiment—some of real estate’s most controversial topics. These are exactly what we’re diving into today with Thomas McGlynn, CEO of BresicWhitney. There's no holding back as we talk about the realities behind underquoting, why it’s so hard to avoid in a competitive market, and the fine line agents walk when trying to attract buyers without misleading them. As Thomas puts it, even with laws in place, agents are often forced into tough positions: when one agent quotes low, others often have to adjust their guides just to compete. It’s a tightrope that often leaves buyers frustrated and sellers with high expectations. We also dig into the auction room itself and the psychology at play there. We take a unique look at how auctioneers manage to draw more from buyers than they initially intend to spend, all without crossing ethical lines. We discuss the difference between registered and active bidders, noting how this insight gives us a real-time view of market confidence—a far more useful indicator than auction clearance rates alone. Finally, we share our thoughts on the current market and where we think it’s headed. With interest rates soaring high, buyers are naturally hesitant, but we believe those who buy now could see the rewards by late 2025, especially in sentiment-driven markets like Sydney. Once rates eventually ease, buyer confidence is expected to surge, and we’ll see a market shift. It’s an honest, in-depth conversation about the realities of today’s market, what buyers can expect, and why timing and strategy are everything. Tune in and let's get started!
