Property Market Report July 2025

Right now, it’s a great time to be a buyer in the North West property market.

It's currently taking around 70 days for the typical property to sell on the TradeMe site, which tells us the market is pretty cool at the moment.

On top of that, there's a huge amount of choice for home-hunters. TradeMe  reporting 43,692 properties for sale, a 17.6% jump from this time last year, which ensures buyers have plenty to consider.

We have seen these conditions before where First Home Buyers have been pensive to enter into buying decisions, sighting the potential for a further price sag and the potential for a better house to come into view. But without gaining a purchase and becoming fatigued by the process. Our tip for home buyers, make a list of what you want in a home and see what most closely aligns with it. Then you can negotiate a price that is a compromise, not a take-it-or we'll-leave it. 

Over the last two weeks we have seen a significant lift in the engagement of Investors, back in the market from around New Zealand and Overseas.

It is the first significant and sustained signal that educated and serious buyers feel the time is right to invest in the North West Auckland Property market.

Therefore, buyers should dust off those pre-approvals and get to work, as there has never been a better time to buy well, with choice and eager Vendors.
