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.

Why working with Barfoot & Thompson can help sell your home. When you’ve decided it’s time to sell, Barfoot & Thompson have the network, the local know-how and global reach to ensure your home gets the attention it deserves. This month we look at some of the tools we use to achieve quality exposure, as well as the power of our team to attract buyers right to your door. Remember we have more information and a range of marketing tools to help you make the very best choices on our website barfoot.co.nz/sell/ marketing


Designing a Marketing plan

The photographers we work with use quality equipment and lighting production techniques to highlight your property’s unique selling points.

From getting your home onto the right websites, creating dynamic digital content, to signage and print - we have a range of marketing options for you to choose from.

Video - Professional videos bring your property to life and reach even more prospective buyers. Studies indicate that including video increases the number of enquiries about a property by 400%. Our video packages are affordable and could make a difference to the impact of your campaign.

When listing your property, our salespeople will make recommendations that best suit you, the local area and the unique features of your home. From the moment we start we will be hard at work creating the very best content to showcase your home. From photography, video and floorplans through to publishing and our exclusive interactive media tools - we have the latest technology and platforms ready to maximise the benefits of the campaign we have designed for you. Our network gets the most buyers through your home. When you choose Barfoot & Thompson we provide maximum exposure from the start. We have over 1,800 salespeople, all with their own network of contacts in their local communities and beyond. Every one of our salespeople have access to your property listing and can search for a suitable ‘buyer match’ for your home.

Marketing Materials When marketing your home, first impressions really are everything! Here are some of the main materials we will prepare to showcase your home to the market. Photography - They say a picture is worth a thousand words. Our listings feature only the best in professional, high resolution photography.

Floor Plans - Properties with floor plans receive up to 30% more interest than those without a floor plan. *Source - Rightmove, one of the UK’s largest property websites.

Online - Global Reach Digital marketing is no longer new; it’s a must have component of every seller’s marketing plan, offering amazing reach. Our technology takes your property to the buyer, wherever they are, whatever device they’re using, and in whatever format they prefer. Upgrading your online presence is the most effective way to get your property to the right people at the right time. Featuring your property on key websites increases views, enquiries and activity at open homes, so it is well worth the investment. We know that most people are searching for their new home online these days. All properties automatically appear on our website, optimised for mobile devices, so your property is easily accessible from anywhere, at any time. Buyers can also be able to find your property on the Barfoot & Thompson app, which offers a full interactive experience with photos and the tools chosen on your package, and easy search options.


All of our listings feature on our website, with over 750,000 visits each month, as well as: Realestate.co.nz – with a total viewing audience of over 650,000 unique visitors each month Leadingre.com – a global network of premier real estate firms, which we’re honoured to be a member of Luxuryportfolio.com – featuring homes over NZD$1.8m and with over 3 million unique visitors each year Nzrealtors.co.nz – showcasing listings from New Zealand’s leading real estate agencies Nationwide Hougarden.com – putting your home in front of the Chinese market Trademe.co.nz – your home in front of kiwi buyers (request to be included in your plan)

Publications & Print We publish hundreds of pages of property advertising every week - because it works. Local and national newspapers which buyers often pick up and browse over their morning coffee. Or the property guides that get delivered inside your local and national newspapers. Smaller, more local publications can also work really well. To complement our campaign, your Barfoot agent will source the best quality brochures and signage for your home and each open home will be promoted in the local area with directional signs, flags and flyer drops. The more buyers can engage with your property online, the better they can imagine it as their home. Check out more tools here: barfoot.co.nz/sell/marketing/options

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.
