BNZ-REINZ Market Survey Results
BNZ-REINZ Market Survey Results
Our monthly
BNZ-REINZ Market Survey has revealed a further strong
increase in interest in the real estate market from first
home buyers, sustained interest from investors, plus more
sales going Unconditional and people passing through Open
Homes. However a small net percent of licensed real estate
agents feel there remains some downside to prices (though
the vast majority feel they are flat), and auctions appear
to have fallen slightly out of favour over the month with
reduced clearance rates.
This is only the second month for this survey and it will take some time before we get a good feel of the normal readings for the various indicators, the impact of seasonal changes, and the extent of month to month volatility. But for now the results over a two month period suggest an improving real estate market but with little reason for believing prices are yet rising by much.
