What is the main topic discussed in this episode?
It's the Real Estate Podcast brought to you by ANZ Home Loans for financial well-beings. And welcome to another episode of the Real Estate Podcast available on iHeartRadio every morning and on Spotify and Apple and wherever you get your podcasts from. Saturday morning has finally arrived up and down the country. I hope you've had a productive week. If you have, you can put your feet up. or perhaps the week is about to really go into overtime looking at property or transacting on property this weekend. It is the 17th day for September for 2022. And talking of property, coming up in just a moment, if you're in the market for a half house, we have got the listing for you. And Luke and Leanne are going to join us from Wollongong this morning.
Now, research conducted by realestate.com.au earlier this year showed that 1.6 million Australians are considering selling a property. And their latest seller sentiment survey has found that 28% of them want to list within the next six months. Now, that equates to a lot of active and motivated buyers coming into the market. And also interestingly, Julia Bentley, the market research and insights manager at REA Group, said that the seller sentiment survey showed that motivations have shifted on the back of rising rates and slipping prices. She said that last year sellers were motivated by strong buyer demand and prices. This is still a motivating factor for 43% of the vendor market, but increasingly sellers are looking to sell due to personal circumstances.
And that is demonstrated, they say, by one in two sellers searching for their next home before selling their current one. And that information coming from realestate.com.au. It's your weekend real estate breakfast, a serial-sized podcast about what's happening in your local backyard every Saturday morning on The Real Estate Podcast. Hey, if you're celebrating your birthday today, it's good that it falls on a weekend for Saturday, the 17th day of September. Have a fantastic day. I see, unfortunately, it was on this day that Paula Yates passed away. She had a bit of a tragic story, didn't she? It was on this day back in way back in 2000. I didn't realize it was that long.
What is the story behind the half house for sale?
And also on this day, there was a record price paid for a concert. It happened on this day in 1964, and the concert was held by the Beatles. And the record payment for the concert was $150,000. And here's one for you if you are a runner. Not sure if you can match this. In 1939, a man runs 10,000 metres... in less than 30 minutes for the first time in recorded history. We talk with leading property commentators with analysis, predictions, forecasts and what's trending every morning from 6.30. It's the main centre forecast with PRD, selling smarter every day. Alright, let's have a look at your weather on this Saturday morning. First we go to Sydney, expecting partly cloudy skies, should be mainly dry and a high of 23 degrees.
In Melbourne today, unfortunately, showers developing for your Saturday morning. 15 is your forecast top. Look at that temperature in Brisbane, mostly blue skies and sunshine with 30 degrees. And in Perth today, one or two showers in your high of 20 degrees. We are just as addicted to property as you are. It's the Real Estate Podcast across Australia, seven days a week. Well, it has been a busy week and the weekend is here. And a quirky little story you might have heard a couple of days ago about a half- house that is up for sale in New South Wales. I think the best thing to do is just to bring in the listing agent, First National Real Estate Wollongong agent, Luke Valesky. And I hope that I pronounced your name right there, Luke.
That's correct. It is pronounced Valesky. Alright, so good to have you on the show. So tell us a little bit about this half house. I know that there's been a lot of comments, a lot of people been saying, well, it's half a house, what happened to the other half? So how did you first come into contact with this? Because it's your listing, how did you pick it up? So I first came in contact with the executor of the property through my local RSL.
