Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The Alfred Daily – 17th June 2026
Q: What's the hardest conversation Matt's had to have with sellers at the moment?
Matt describes the challenge of realigning seller expectations about price amid a shifting market, noting that some deals fall through and this creates emotional and financial strain for buyers and sellers alike.
The Alfred Daily – 24th June 2026
Q: What are the key changes to Finders Keepers for Shaftesbury Fringe this year?
Vera explains that the show is reworked for Shaftesbury Fringe with a different cast, Vera directing, and adaptations that make it punchier and more flexible, while keeping the core stories.
The Alfred Daily – 3rd June 2026
Q: What should listeners consider when a property is dark for viewings?
Listeners were advised to balance lighting with natural light, plan ahead by arriving early to adjust lighting, and keep some lights on strategically to showcase the property without making it look artificially bright.
The Alfred Daily – 10th June 2026
Q: What are the warning signs that a buyer might not be serious?
Lack of regular communication is the primary indicator; if a buyer goes silent for weeks, it signals potential issues or disengagement, which is a bigger risk than whether they are cash or mortgage funded.
The Alfred Daily – 27th May 2026
Q: What factors influence how you price a property for local buyers vs. week-enders?
Matt Boatwright explains that pricing must reflect market demand and the property's true value rather than trying to target a single demographic, and that buyers from outside the area can still offer the best price.
