MillwaterpropertytalkwithGrayson In Rodney, the median house price was up to $624,500, with volumes up on June but down against last July. Results are slightly different in Millwater; with the median house price falling to $825,000 against last month’s $837,500. However, this is still well up on the July 2013 figure of $724,000. The Weighted Value Index shows a slight increase to 996, which, along with a slightly lower average house size sold for the month, reflects the concept that there is a fairly high minimum entry point into the Millwater market. Adding additional size sees diminishing marginal costs. Simply expressed, larger houses are comparatively less expensive than smaller ones and at the moment we are seeing a larger proportion of bigger homes being sold. At street level there is an increasing awareness of Millwater as a desirable destination, with a range of buyer profiles being seen. Established areas within the subdivision are being seen as generating a premium, with many buyers indicating the proximity of building activity as a factor in their purchasing decision. The other factor in the Millwater market right now is the lack of quality “second hand” property. We have high interest from buyers wanting the finished article; they don’t want the hassle of building or dealing with the teething issues of a new home. From the people we have been talking to, there appears to be a large number of owners considering a sale but most seem to be waiting for Spring. This could be a mistake – the buyers are present now! In Spring, there will be a much larger number of competing properties and we may see some negative
pressure on prices in the short term. We are seeing some common factors that buyers indicate as desirable when looking at property and we will be running a series of articles in coming months, to help owners maximise the value of their property in an ever-evolving market where a lot of similar fundamentals exist. As always, if you want more information on sales, to get a better idea of where your property sits in the current market, or to get help with maximising the value in your property, please give me a call. Advice is free, mistakes can be costly! Call Grayson on (09) 426 6122 or 021 665 423.
