Auckland Housing Market Sees Out Winter In Good Shape The Auckland housing market was in hibernation mode in July, with prices and sales revolving around where they have been throughout winter. “Sales and prices remained consistent with where they were in May and June, and where we have come to expect them to be at this time of the year,” said Peter Thompson, Managing Director of Barfoot & Thompson. “It was a good solid month’s trading and left the market in good shape as we head into the spring months. “Buyers were active with sales for the month reaching 845, a little ahead of the average number over the past three months but down 5.1% on those for last month.
“The market has just ticked over quietly during the winter months and has resisted drifting down while uncertainty around the Middle East and an economic recovery have dominated the headlines. “The next step is for the market to find a sense of direction as winter tails off. “With the imminent arrival of spring, there was an uplift in new listings with 1,551 new properties reaching the market with total listings at month’s end being 5,943. “The rural and lifestyle markets in the northern parts of the North Island experienced a lift in sales activity in July, with the agency recording its highest number of sales in a month for 10 months.”
“The median price for the month at $945,000 was up 0.5% on that for last month but down 0.5% on that for July last year. “The average price at $1,102,469 was much the same, being down 0.5% on that for June but up 0.2% from where it was last year. “Sales were steady across all price segments, with a quarter of all sales being for under $750,000 with 7% of sales being above $2 million.

Time To Sell! Offers & Negotiation Top Tips
Why working with Barfoot & Thompson can help sell your home. In our recent editions we have discussed the steps involved in selling your home from getting ready to sell right through to the ins and outs of Open Homes. We’re exploring what to expect when the time has come to look at offers.
Remember we have more information and a range of guides and tips to help you make the very best choices on our website barfoot.co.nz/sell/ selling-guide
Now
it gets exciting! Your home has been noticed and buyers want to proceed with an offer. As we all know: where there are offers, often negotiation is involved! How an offer is made, along with the particular terms and conditions on which a sale depends, will be determined to some extent by the method of sale you have chosen. In every case, your Barfoot & Thompson Salesperson will be there at every step to guide and assist you - and liaise between you and the buyer.
Auction When selling by auction you will have set terms and conditions of sale together with our auction department and your solicitor. This is recorded in an agreement that will be sent to interested parties during the marketing campaign so they are fully informed before auction day. During the weeks leading up to the auction, a buyer might ask for a variation on your terms and conditions. For example, a party may ask you to agree to a different possession date, should they be the highest bidder on the day. This is formally documented and signed off by both parties well before the auction; and the decision to agree or not is always yours.
Arrangements for a deposit are made (usually by cheque or by bank transfer the same day), and the remainder of the purchase price is due on settlement day. Should the property not sell at auction, then there is room for conditional buyers to enter the arena and an agreement can be negotiated.
What can I expect on auction day?
Sometimes, an acceptable offer is made before auction day, which may lead to the auction being brought forward, this is referred to as a pre-auction offer. In this scenario, the acceptable offer serves as the opening bid, while other interested parties are given the opportunity to bid upward from there. For detailed information about all of the steps and what to expect on Auction day, refer to our website where we have dedicated pages for both buyers and sellers.
Sellers guide to auctions
Once the property has sold under the hammer, you and the purchaser are asked to sign the contract documenting the sale, which will then be distributed to your and their solicitor for processing.

Negotiation
Tender
If you have decided to sell by negotiation, offers can be presented at any point. As with auctions and tenders, offers are presented in writing on a sale and purchase agreement. You will look at the terms and conditions in the agreement, as well as the price in order to determine whether you would like to accept or negotiate further via a counter offer.
If you have decided to sell by tender, your salesperson will present you with offers at the set day and time the tender closes. The terms and conditions in the agreement as well as the offered price will help determine which offer you would like to accept or whether you would like to negotiate further.
Once the offer is accepted, you sign a final document and the agreement will be distributed to the solicitors. If the agreement is contingent on conditions, then the purchaser has a number of working days specified to satisfy these and the agreement becomes unconditional once this completes - meaning your property has sold!
Sometimes an unconditional offer is made where the only aspect left to negotiate is price. This is called a ‘cash unconditional’ offer and once both parties agree on the price, the property is sold.
Offers are private and confidential - they are for your consideration, for which you are allowed to allocate a time frame of five working days. The terms and conditions in the agreement, as well as the offered price will be determining factors in your decision which offer you would like to accept or negotiate further. Once an offer is accepted, you will sign it and the agreement will be distributed to the solicitors for processing. If the agreement is contingent on conditions, then the purchaser has a number of working days specified to satisfy these. When these conditions complete, the agreement becomes unconditional and the property is sold. During this period your sales person as well as your solicitor will be working together with the buying party to facilitate the sale at every step.
