Interest in buying a home on the Central Coast has increased since COVID-19 said Brian Whiteman of The Agency to WILLIAMS MEDIA.
On the Central Coast, north of Sydney, they are selling a property every second day, according to The Agency's Brian Whiteman.
"It has a lot to do with how we are doing things, we have learnt to do it right," said Mr Whiteman to WILLIAMS MEDIA.
"With COVID-19, people were putting off staff but we put another on, to increase the care around the buyer.

"The Central Coast is seen as a lifestyle choice and with the completion of the North Connex tunnel, which comes off the M1, people will be in the Sydney CBD in an hour."
Mr Whiteman said working from home is another reason for the increase in sales in the area.
"I often see couples for market appraisals and both are working from home, so anything near water, renovated or well-maintained is very popular," said Mr Whiteman.
"The Renovator's Delight is not so popular at the moment, but there is definitely an influx of out-of-town buyers from Sydney, along with locals who are buying."
