REINSW President and CEO meet with local agents from the Parramatta & Hills Division
6 June 2012

Local issues, as well as the upcoming NSW State Budget, will dominate the agenda as the President and CEO of REINSW meet with local agents in Parramatta tonight (Wednesday, 6 June 2012).

“Meeting with local agents is the best way to get a feel for what’s happening at the coalface”, said REINSW President Christian Payne.

REINSW CEO Tim McKibbin has joined Mr Payne at tonight’s meeting of the Parramatta & Hills Division of the Real Estate Institute of New South Wales.

“Spending time with local agents, listening to their issues and concerns helps us frame our lobbying with government at all levels.

“Key matters we look forward to discussing with local agents include:

  • Stamp duty reform, including the ‘Pay As You Go’ stamp duty plan proposed to the NSW Government by REINSW
  • Initiatives REINSW would like to see included in the upcoming State Budget
  • The impact of changes to the Residential Tenancies Act on the local market
  • Interest rates and the state of the local market
  • The current state of rental vacancies
“Parramatta and the Hills District are vital parts of the state’s property sector and our visit today will help us better understand the issues affecting the community.

“The CEO and I are looking forward to discussing a wide range of issues with local agents and seeing where REINSW can add its weight and support,” said Mr Payne.
