Signs Auckland Housing Nearing Price Tipping Point The Auckland housing market experienced a typical end of winter sales month in August, but prices went against the normal trend by holding firm. “The Auckland market in August showed signs that it may be nearing a tipping point,” said Peter Thompson, Managing Director of Barfoot & Thompson. “Buyers are there and interested but are yet to be convinced that the upward price cycle is about to commence. They are still waiting for confirmation that the long-awaited return of rising prices is about to get underway. “It remains a solid buyers’ market, but there are signs that prices are hardening. “The median sales price for the month, at $955,000, was up marginally on that for July and the highest it has been for the past three months. “August’s median price was $15,000, or 1.6% higher than June’s median, and it is unusual

for the median price to be higher in the last month of winter than the first month of the cold season. It was also 0.5% higher than August’s median price last year. “It is a solid benchmark price from which to start the arrival of the spring selling season, and a small but welcome signal to vendors that a reversal may be in the wings.

“New listings for the month at 1,456 remained healthy, and month-end listings at 5,870 were in line with listings at this time last year. “Sales turnover in the rural and lifestyle markets in the upper North Island experienced a quiet month’s trading with turnover being slightly in excess of $36 million, in line with July’s trading.”

“The average price for the month at $1,098,487 continued to sit comfortably above $1,000,000. It was also 1.6% higher than August’s average price last year. “Sales were spread evenly across all price segments during the month, with 5% of sales being for more than $2 million. “We sold 787 properties in August. Although the second lowest number of sales in a month this year and down 6.9% on July’s sales it is unusual for prices to rise or hold firm when sales volume declines.

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.

Meet the Team Investing in people, building success. First and foremost, I am a people person who thrives on others’ success. Upon joining Barfoot & Thompson in 2014, I became one of the top property professionals in Glen Eden before moving into leadership roles as the company’s Accelerators Manager, trainer and recruiter. I later became Branch Manager of Glen Eden, an opportunity that allowed me to put my experience in coaching and developing people into practice. I have now taken on a new challenge as Branch Manager for Pukekohe, Pokeno and Tuakau, where I am focused on mentoring, training and encouraging our teams to achieve their potential. I believe you need to invest in your people first and foremost. Ryan Young Branch Manager 021 071 0040

Before real estate, I owned a business where the primary objective was helping others achieve their goals and succeed in their daily lives. I also spent the first part of my career studying and working in coaching and facilitation, including a stint with the Auckland Blues as a strength and conditioning coach and Harbour Sport as a facilitator. I completed a degree majoring in coaching and have enjoyed roles involving coaching, training and facilitation. These experiences taught me that although real estate is a team sport, we must focus on the individual. I believe everyone at Barfoot & Thompson should feel supported and have the opportunity to succeed in a competitive environment. I enjoy the real estate industry, and I know my future is in developing people. Leading the Pukekohe, Pokeno and Tuakau teams brings these two interests together and represents an exciting next chapter for me.
