The start of the year has brought a calm, balanced feel to the Woodley property market. Homes are selling, buyers are active, and the wheels are turning but not in a rush. This isn’t a market where momentum alone will carry you. It’s timing, accuracy and understanding your local competition that now drive results.

Landlords often debate how much to spend on their rental property. Overspending eats into profits, but under-investing leads to bigger problems later — not to mention unhappy tenants. The key is to focus on improvements that add long-term value, reduce maintenance, and keep your property attractive to tenants.
