Low Auckland house prices attract strong sales activity

The Auckland housing market is experiencing strong sales activity without it affecting price stability.

“In February, sales numbers at 785 were excellent, and we sold the highest number of homes in a February for five years,” said Peter Thompson, Managing Director of Barfoot & Thompson.

“February’s high activity follows on from that in January, and in the first two months of the year we have sold 1,609 homes, 16 percent more than at the same time last year.

“The only year we have sold more homes in the first two months of a calendar year in the last decade was 2021.

“The attraction that is drawing buyers is current price levels, with the median sales price in February at $904,000, down 9.6 percent on that for January, and the average price at $1,013,976, down 13.3 percent.

“These are among the lowest monthly median and average

sales prices seen in Auckland since prices peaked in 2022.

“The combination of high sales and low prices is part of the ‘structural change’ the Reserve Bank commented on when announcing the OCR would remain at 2.25 percent in late February.

“Effectively, housing supply is starting to meet housing demand, and the prices are drawing in buyers who once felt priced out of the market.

“We listed 2,252 new properties in February, a combination of new builds and existing homes, and at month end had 6,159 properties on our books, the highest number of listings we have had at this time of the year for 15 years.

“While the combination of good choice, stable prices and high sales numbers is drawing strong buyer interest, for the first time in many years this is not putting pressure on prices.

“Of our sales in February 31 percent were in the under

$750,000 price segment, the category most attractive to first time buyers.

“Sales in the $2 million plus market represented 4 percent of total sales. This sector is normally quiet at this time of the year because of the holiday season.

“Sales of property in the rural and leisure sectors of Northland and greater Auckland for February were close to $37 million, bringing sales for the first two months of the year to $100 million, 15.5 percent higher than for the same two months last year.”

Peter Thompson Managing Director

Planning! ...Take the stress out of Moving Day

Although the idea of settling in to a new home is very exciting, the actual moving process sometimes may seem a bit daunting - there’s a lot to think of and organise. Here are some tips to make the process as stress-free as possible:

Before moving day:

• If you’re hiring a moving company, book them as soon as you know the moving date.

• If moving yourself, plan your transport. Hire a rental truck or trailer and start organising boxes.

• Call your insurance company and make sure your goods will be covered during the move.

• Write a list of all your possessions and plan which ones you can box ahead of time.

• When filling your boxes make sure they aren’t too heavy to carry.

• Label boxes with their contents and the area of the house they are going in. Make sure you clearly label fragile goods.

• Enlist the help of family and friends to help you on the big day.

• Make sure you have valuables, paperwork and any other essential items with you on the day of the move.

Remember we have a range of video tips for sellers. Head to our website for more information: barfoot.co.nz/sell/video-tips

Notify important parties of your new address:

• Your banks and solicitor.

• The IRD.

• Your workplace, kids’ schools & childcare.

• Doctor, dentist, vet and other medical practitioners.

• Stores that you have accounts with, hire purchase companies and local club memberships.

• Apply to have your mail redirected with NZ Post and leave your new address with the new owners so they can forward mail on. Local utility companies and your local authority / council.

Don’t Forget!

• Discontinue or transfer services:

• Gas, power and water - don’t forget to organise a final reading

• Telephone and internet

• Sky TV, newspapers, magazine delivery or other publications you’re subscribed to

• Alarm monitoring

• Lawn mowing/garden services

Learn more about making moving day an easier process and how to plan for it in advance.

Cleaning:

• If using a professional cleaner, book them as soon as you know the moving date.

• Try to use up food in the fridge and freezer. Clean and defrost them the day before you move.

• Sell, give or throw away any broken, damaged or unwanted possessions.

• Essentially: Leave the home in the same condition you want to find your new one.

On moving day:

• Remove all fixtures and fittings from the walls.

• Disconnect washing machine and drain water.

• Check tops of wardrobes and in the attic/ basement for any forgotten belongings.

• Don’t put breakables or liquids in drawers to be moved.

• Keep jewellery, money, passports, legal documents or insurance policies with you.

• Take your rubbish with you.

• Leave manuals and any important notes for the new owners.

• Make sure you turn off the lights, hot water system, gas meter and electricity switchboard and lock the door when you leave.

• Leave the keys with the appropriate person or agency.

Think of the Pets:

• Think about arranging a pet-sitter on moving day to take care of them.

• Update your pet’s details on their name tag, with your local council, and with the New Zealand Companion Animal Register.

• All dogs are required to be microchipped but if you haven’t already done this, now is the time. Although it’s not a requirement in New Zealand, it’s a good idea to get your cat microchipped too - it’s the only guaranteed way of identifying it if it runs away from your new home.

• Make sure you update your details with your vet. If you have an anxious pet, ask them for strategies to help keep them calm during the move.

If you’re moving overseas, ask about vaccinations and special medications too!
