Latest News
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 first-time 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.”

DIFFERENT WAYS TO SELL
TOP TIPS
When selling your home
You have decided to sell your home and might be wondering about what would be the best method.
At Barfoot & Thompson you have a choice of different methods to best suit you and your property. This article discusses the main sale methods as well as different agency types.
Remember, we have more information and a range of videos on our website to help you make the very best choice.

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.
Sole or 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.
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.
Tender
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.
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 they represent your interests throughout the process.

Meet the Team
#7 Branch Manager, to end March 2023
As a Branch Manager, I can confidently state that I’m an expert in real estate and that my experience in sales, regulations and training sets me apart from the crowd. Over the last 15 years, I have immersed myself in the outcomes, surprises, complications, successes, fluctuations and positive endings for both my clients and those that I have managed. I intimately understand industry best practice and back not just my team in Mt Eden, but also the 1,500+ salespeople that form the Barfoot & Thompson network.
My sales career began in 2002 in the Eastern bays area, where I built a reputation for action and results. Within my first year, I was recognised as a top achiever. Because of this, I was approached to coach and mentor others in the industry. Since then, I have guided some of New Zealand’s top salespeople as they have navigated various market cycles. I believe my professional strength lies in my grasp of the psychology behind selling and the strategies needed to achieve top results. This savvy also has a way of making the real estate process look effortless and has assisted hundreds of real estate salespeople kick start their careers.
My knowledge of the intricacies of the industry and my ability to negotiate, is what drives results for clients and makes me a great advisor.
For a team that knows how to find you the ideal home or the best sale price, look no further.
