The Auckland property market had a strong close to the summer/autumn selling season with sales numbers at their strongest for the month of June in four years, and the average price increasing to its highest in three months.
“June is normally a month when sales activity starts to tail off with the approach of winter, but this June was a strong sales month,” said Stephen Barfoot, a Director of Barfoot & Thompson.
“The median sales price for the month at $981,500, was the highest it has been this year and 5.7 percent higher than last month’s median sales price.
“While this is well below the peak median price established a few years ago, compared to where prices have been over the past few months, it represents a pleasing reversal in direction.
“The strong increase in the number of sales being achieved this year compared with the past two years continued into June.
“We sold 876 properties in June, which was our highest number in the month of June for four years and was more than a quarter higher than in the same month last year.
“While June’s sales numbers were down on May’s, our sales for 2025 year-to-date continue to run 20 percent higher than those for last year.
“The market may be drifting in terms of prices, but when it comes to sales turnover it
is stronger now than it has been since sales and prices peaked in 2021.
“New listings in the month at 1,405 were solid, but the lowest they have been for 5 months, with month end housing stock sitting at 5,831. While this number is on a par with stock levels at this time last year it is the first time in four months properties on our books have fallen below 6,000.
“The rural and lifestyle markets to the north, west and south of Auckland also had a strong month going into winter, with the sales value of properties for June being more than $59 million, the highest sales total in these markets in the month of June for three years.
“Sales by value in the rural and lifestyle markets in the first half of 2025 are running 41 percent ahead of where they were at the same time last year.”
Stephen Barfoot Director

You have decided to sell your home, but now you are wondering ‘How’?
At Barfoot & Thompson you have a choice of different methods to best suit you. This month we discuss the main sale methods and different agency types.
Remember we have more information and a range of videos to help you make the very best choice on our website, barfoot.co.nz

A real estate auction is a method of selling a property through the process of public negotiation to determine the true market value of the property at that time.
Not only is Barfoot & Thompson Auckland’s largest real estate company, but it is also Auckland’s leading auction house - holding more auctions than any other real estate company. Some benefits of selling by Auction include: You market your home without a price – the sky’s the limit.
You have 3 opportunities to sell your home by auction; a) pre-auction, b) under the hammer or c) post-auction.
There are no additional fees associated with a Barfoot & Thompson Auction so you have nothing to lose.
An Auction sale is unconditional, you know your settlement date and how much you have sold for when the hammer falls.
We have a team of seven auctioneers that do auctions - and only auctions. They’re not part-time sales people or managers. That means when you sell your house through a Barfoot & Thompson auction, you’ve got the most dedicated and experienced team possible working for you.
When selling by Tender, your home is sold by way of confidential offers that buyers make by a set deadline.
Offers are opened at the same time in the presence of a Barfoot & Thompson Manager or Auctioneer and you have five working days from the Tender Date to decide if you will accept an offer. You have the right to negotiate with just one of the buyers and once accepted, the buyer is bound by the terms and conditions of the Tender document.
While any property can be sold by tender, it is particularly suitable for:
- Properties where a number of parties must be consulted, for example, properties owned by a family trust or deceased estate.
- Properties where potential customers would expect to have to do due diligence before submitting an offer, for example, properties with strong development potential.
Your home is offered to the market at a fixed price that you determine or by negotiation.
Potential buyers can make offers for you to consider, these offers are usually conditional on various factors the buyer needs to investigate such as finance, builders report, council Lim report contents etc.
Your Barfoot & Thompson Salesperson will assist with negotiations and represents your interests throughout the process.
If you have a sole agency agreement, then only the real estate company named on the agreement can do real estate agency work (i.e. market and sell) on the property identified in the agreement. This type of agreement encourages the agency to work harder on your behalf.
If you sign a sole agency agreement, you should not sign up to another agent, as you may have to pay commission for both.
A general agency allows a number of real estate companies to do real estate work for the same property, at the same time.
If you sign a general agency agreement with more than one agency, you would only pay commission to the agency which succeeds in selling your property.
With this type of agreement, every agent has the listing but nobody has responsibility of selling the property.
Why list as a sole agency versus a general agency? There is an obligation placed on the salesperson to provide a sale, which encourages them to work harder for it.
