Latest News

Auckland Property Sales May Have Hit Vendors’ Floor Price Auckland property prices remained steadfast in September even though sales turnover was at its lowest for 5 months. “For the second consecutive month sale prices did not follow the decline in sales numbers, which at 768 were the second lowest for a month this year,” said Peter Thompson, Managing Director, Barfoot & Thompson. “While first time buyers and investors remained active, the ‘mover’ market is taking a more ‘wait and see’ approach as we move closer to the General Election. “The market will benefit from a more confident view that is likely to develop post the General Election and the country’s economic way forward becomes clearer. “While sales activity is low, prices are remaining constant and vendors may well have reached their floor price.

“The median price in September at $940,000 was 1.1% higher than at this time last year, and 0.6% higher than in 2024. However, sales at 768 were a quarter lower than in 2025 and 22% lower than in 2024. Normally, lower sales lead to prices falling. “The average sales price is telling the same story that prices are not falling as sales fall but in a different way. In September the average price was $1,074,865 and, while down 2.2% on that for August and down 1.4% on last year’s equivalent, for 6 of the 9 months this year the average selling price has exceeded its equivalent 12 months earlier.

“Although September ranks as the second lowest month of the year in terms of sales numbers, property selling at above $2 million continued to attract attention with 39 sales in this market segment in the month. “Property sales in the rural and lifestyle markets to the north, south and west of Auckland enjoyed a modest lift in activity with the arrival of Spring, with sales exceeding $50 million, the highest turnover in these markets for 6 months.”

“There is no shortage of property for sale. “We listed 1,769 properties in September, our highest number in 6 months, and it brought our total listings at month end to 6203, our highest number for 5 months.

Different Ways To Sell Top Tips

When Selling Your Home 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 tips and guides to help you make the very best choice on our website barfoot.co.nz/sell/ selling-methods

Tender When selling by Tender, your home is sold by way of private and 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.

Auction 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 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 parttime 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.

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.

Promotion 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.

Sole vs. General Agency 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.
