                                                          fair to say that the North Shore property market

                                                             Yes it’s true that the economy has taken a hit
                                                          and some industries are really struggling, and I

                                                          and events industries in particular. However there
                                                          are industries that are firing at the moment too,
                                                          in particular anything to do with property and
                                                          construction. Certainly the catalyst for this is the

                                                          recently, and probably more to go, there have
                                                          been opportunities open up in other industries.
