More positives for the NZ housing market

One of the most encouraging factors for the housing market is the high level of job security and firm wage growth that has been seen in recent times. These factors, along with rising net migration inflows, have been contributing to a strong demand for housing by first home buyers who are firmly back in the market

In addition to this, rents are rising, and there has been a significant increase in construction costs, which is good news for property owners.

Another important development in the New Zealand housing market is the fact that banks are easing up their lending criteria. This has made it easier for buyers to secure financing and good news for those looking to enter the market for the first time.

House prices (excluding Auckland) have risen by 27.5% since March 2020. This puts the prices falls into perspective.

In conclusion, there are several reasons to be optimistic about the New Zealand housing market. While it’s too soon to expect prices rises, I believe we are getting nearer to the end of houses price falls.
