any thoughts on sydney's north shore market

Hey guys, I'm interested in buying my first property in Sydney's north Shore. Basically Ive been looking at recent date and it seems the market is going sideways, not dramatically down like we've seen in the northern beaches.

seems like theres still plenty of demand from overseas investors, and the cased up asian community absorbing all the stock.

just wanted to hear your thoughts both bulls and bears on this area.

is now a good time to buy?

also, do you think the end of the stamp duty excemptions would realistically impact on the market?

Cheers
