Spring brings burst of buying activity to Auckland house market
The start of spring has seen committed buyers re-enter the Auckland residential property market with sales for September being their highest in the month for four years.
“It was a great start to the spring buying season,” said Peter Thompson, Managing Director of Barfoot & Thompson.
“Buyers were committed, and there was a general feeling that now was the time to act before prices started to increase.
“We sold 1,032 homes in the month, a 13.8 percent increase over the number we have sold on average over the previous three months.
“It is the first time we have sold more than 1,000 homes in the month of September for four years and is only 60 homes less than we sold during September 2020 when the market was heading towards its peak.
“Buyers were conscious that prices have remained stable since the start of the year and that this settled pattern may not last for much longer.
“The median sales price for the month was $930,000, the lowest it has been for four months, down 2.1 percent on August’s price while the average price was $1,089,686, down 0.8 percent on that a month previously.
“A positive aspect about the month’s prices is that the average price was 0.8 percent higher than its equivalent in September last year and the median price was only 0.5 percent lower than its equivalent last year.
“The four-year trend, when the monthly median and average prices failed to reach the previous year’s equivalent, may be ending.
“Property in the under $750,000 price category continued to sell well in September, accounting for 26.5 percent (or 273) of all the homes we sold in the month. Homes in this price category are proving particularly appealing to firsttime buyers and investors.
“A combination of new builds and existing homes saw new listings for the month reach 1,781, which was excellent for early spring and brought the end-of-month stock level to 5,775.
“September was a quiet month for sales in the above $3 million price category, with 12 sales.
“The spring effect was also felt in the rural and lifestyle market with September sales reaching $73 million, the highest September sales for five years and our second highest monthly sales figure this year.”

TOP TIPS
Why working with Barfoot & Thompson can help sell your home.
In our recent editions we have discussed the steps involved in selling your home from getting ready to sell right through to the ins and outs of Open Homes. This month, we explore what to expect when the time has come to look at offers...
Remember we have more information and a range of videos to help you make the very best choices on our website, barfoot. co.nz
barfoot.co.nz/sell/selling-guide
Now it gets exciting!
Your home has been noticed and buyers want to proceed with an offer.
As we all know: where there are offers, often negotiation is involved!
How an offer is made, along with the particular terms and conditions on which a sale depends, will be determined to some extent by the method of sale you have chosen. In every case, your Barfoot & Thompson Salesperson will be there at every step to guide and assist you - and liaise between you and the buyer.
Auction
When selling by auction you will have set terms and conditions of sale together with our auction department and your solicitor. This is recorded in an agreement that will be sent to interested parties during the marketing campaign so they are fully informed before auction day.
During the weeks leading up to the auction, a buyer might ask for a variation on your terms and conditions. For example, a party may ask you to agree to a different possession date, should they be the highest bidder on the day. This is formally documented and signed off by both parties well before the auction; and the decision to agree or not is always yours.
Sometimes, an acceptable offer is made before auction day, which may lead to the auction being brought forward, this is referred to as a preauction offer. In this scenario, the acceptable offer serves as the opening bid, while other interested parties are given the opportunity to bid upward from there.
For detailed information about all of the steps and what to expect on Auction day head to our website – we have dedicated pages for both buyers and sellers including videos from our salespeople and top auctioneers.

Once the property has sold under the hammer, you and the purchaser are asked to sign the contract documenting the sale, which will then be distributed to your and their solicitor for processing. Arrangements for a deposit are made (usually by cheque or by bank transfer the same day), and the remainder of the purchase price is due on settlement day. Should the property not sell at auction, then there is room for conditional buyers to enter the arena and an agreement can be negotiated.
Negotiation
If you have decided to sell by negotiation offers can be presented at any point. As with auctions and tenders, offers are presented in writing on a sale and purchase agreement. You will look at the terms and conditions in the agreement, as well as the price in order to determine whether you would like to accept or negotiate further via a counter offer.
Once the offer is accepted, you sign a final document and the agreement will be distributed to the solicitors. If the agreement is contingent on conditions, then the purchaser has a number of working days specified to satisfy these and the agreement becomes unconditional once this completes - meaning your property has sold!
Sometimes an unconditional offer is made where the only aspect left to negotiate is price. This is called a ‘cash unconditional’ offer and once both parties agree on the price, the property is sold.
Tender
If you have decided to sell by tender, your salesperson will present you with offers at the set day and time the tender closes. The terms and conditions in the agreement as well as the offered price will help determine which offer you would like to accept or whether you would like to negotiate further.
Offers are private and confidential - they are for your consideration, for which you are allowed to allocate a time frame of five working days. The terms and conditions in the agreement, as well as the offered price will be determining factors in your decision which offer you would like to accept or negotiate further.
Once an offer is accepted, you will sign it and the agreement will be distributed to the solicitors for processing. If the agreement is contingent on conditions, then the purchaser has a number of working days specified to satisfy these. When these conditions complete, the agreement becomes unconditional and the property is sold. During this period your sales person as well as your solicitor will be working together with the buying party to facilitate the sale at every step.
