Monthly Auckland residential property sales continued to gain momentum during April and sales for the first four months of the year were their highest for four years.
“By the end of April this year we had sold 3440 properties, 18.5 percent higher than in the first four months of last year, 65.5 percent higher than in 2023 and 2.8 percent higher than in 2022,” said Peter Thompson, Managing Director of Barfoot & Thompson.
“It underlines that in terms of the number of sales being made, the Auckland market is building some traction.
“In April we sold 842 properties. While down nearly a third on those for March, this was the highest number of sales we have made in April for four years, and we only exceeded this number in April once in the last nine years.
“Sales in the early part of April slowed when talk of tariff ‘trade wars’ reached their highest but rebounded quickly towards month’s end.
“March is the peak of the summer selling season, and a decline in sales numbers compared to March is normal.
“From a price perspective the market showed no signs of lifting, with prices in April drifting downwards with the median price at $934,000, being down 3.7 percent on that for March, and the average price at $1,110, 689, down 3 percent.
“Prices normally ease back post March as we head into autumn.
“A marked feature of sales in April was the high percentage of sales in the under $750,000 price segment, which accounted for 26.8 percent of all sales. In March this price segment accounted for 23.4 percent of sales.
“The high number of new build apartments and town houses in the under $750,000 price segment currently hitting the market are proving extremely popular with first time buyers and investors.
“Sales of properties for in excess of $2 million represented 7.5 percent of all sales, and this figure is consistent with the percentage of $2 million sales in April last year.
“New listings for April were a healthy 1578, and were in line with April last year, and properties for sale on our books
at month end were 6113.
“This number is only marginally down on last month’s record level of properties for sale at month end.
“April sales in the rural and lifestyle markets to the north, south and west of Auckland continued to enjoy strong sales activity in the month, with sales reaching a little over $61 million. This level of turnover was down only 5 percent on March’s outstanding sales month.
“With 28 rural and lifestyle properties being sold, this was the highest number of sales in the month of April in four years.”
Peter Thompson Managing Director

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.
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.
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.
When selling by Tender, your home is sold by way of confidential offers that buyers make by a set deadline.
After the Tender deadline has passed, all offers are opened at the same time in the presence of a Barfoot & Thompson Manager or Auctioneer. You have five working days from the Tender date to decide if you will accept one of them. 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 they represent your interests throughout the process.
