Market Report for October 2016 – Kumeu & districts

real-estate-table-october-2016 One month of selling time before the Christmas slow down.  A change in season always brings about interest in property, values, listings and buyer demand. The new Auckland Council plan and its associated boundary lines will in turn create change and opportunity. We sense that there is calm before a storm of activity. The market is in constant change and we encourage you to consider the value that is represented within refurbished homes and that history dictates that it will never be cheaper to build than it is today.  Let’s see what the market has achieved this month: Coatesville lifestyle from $1,035,000 to $1,531,000. Helensville residential from $688,000 to $715,000. Helensville lifestyle from $890,000 to $1,605,000. Parakai residential from $540,000 to $555,000. Huapai residential from $732,000 to $1,180,000.

July house sales in Kumeu and muriwai

Three months of selling time before Christmas. We are on the short slope to spring, the days are getting longer, the lambs and the daffodils will soon be dancing the fields, and before you can blink the big man with the red coat and the white beard will be shooting down the chimney.  What we would like to point out is that if you are considering a change in your real estate situation you should be getting us in to appraise your property and step you through the pre-sale checklist to ensure you can achieve the very best return on your property.  The Reserve Bank seems determined to implement additional mortgage lending criteria, let’s call them short term dampening moves to curb the housing demand. Problem being that most of demand is created by syndicates and consortiums that are not subject to traditional mortgage borrowing. The buyer profiles we are often working with have five or six homes in a range of areas and have a long term buy and hold strategy. Therefore the latest regulations implemented on overseas buyers are irrelevant while the loan to income ratio envelope will further disadvantage hard working first home buyers wanting to create family security and sovereignty.  Chances are we haven’t seen the end of changes to buyer controls. On a brighter note, let’s see what the market has achieved this month: Coatesville lifestyle from $1,080,000 to $1,850,000. Helensville residential from $520,000 to $721,000. Parakai residential from $312,000 to $650,000. Huapai residential from $835,000 to $987,500. Kumeu lifestyle from $915,000 to $7,025,000. Riverhead residential $660,000 to $1,350,000. Riverhead lifestyle from $2,110,000 to...

Muriwai to Riverhead sales in June 2016

Market Report with Graham July heralds the downhill slope toward Christmas and the reality will soon dawn that you have about four months of selling before 2016 comes to an end. Therefore if you are thinking about a change in your real estate position it may be the best time to start thinking, talking and planning. Strong interest in property from a broad cross section of investors, families, upsizers and downsizers. Although banks are taking steps to further restrict borrowing outside the risk envelope there seems to be no letup in the ability for syndicates to gather offshore funds to procure property that will be subject to subdivision or a favourable rental return.  Let’s consider the markets: Coatesville lifestyle from $1,560,000 to $3,250,000. Helensville lifestyle from $935,000 to $1,025,000. Helensville residential from $369,000 to $750,000. Huapai and Kumeu lifestyle from $1,950,000 to $3,000,000. Huapai and Kumeu residential from $725,000 to $1,075,000. Muriwai lifestyle at $2,275,000. Muriwai residential from $730,000 to $1,267,000. Parakai residential from $475,000 to $485,000.

Property sales in the North-West including Kumeu, Waimauku and Muriwai

Market Report with Graham As we dive into the clutches of winter we continue to see strong buyer demand in all areas and from a wide range of markets including first homes buyers, upsizers, downsizers, lifestylers and investors. The market is starting to reflect clear value points with refurbished homes around $800,000, new homes at $1,000,000 plus and lifestyle over $1,300,000.  There is still the odd cheaper home that is sold subject to an issue, or presentation but then remedial costs are high due to the demand being placed on tradespeople. Properties for sale are reducing over the whole market again and we predict this will continue through to September 2016. So to recap, a great time to sell, and a good time to buy if the price is right.  Let’s consider the individual markets: Coatesville – Lifestyle sales at $1,750,000 to $3,300,000. Helensville – Residential sales at $529,000 to $789,000. Lifestyle sales at $ 850,000 to $2,500,000. Huapai and Kumeu – Residential sales at $840,000 to $1,170,000. Lifestyle sales at $1,600,000 to $6,980,000. Muriwai – Residential sales at $600,000 to $1,120,000. Lifestyle sales at $960,000 to $1,300,000. Waitakere and Taupaki – Lifestyle sales at $1,250,000 to $2,010,000. Waimauku – Residential sales at $950,000 to $1,235,000. Whenuapai – Residential sales at $818,000 to $2,000,000.
