The markets turned, prices stopped rising. - Lucy - 03-02-2022
You can buy a house at auction now if you have finance, more to choose from now.

that was long overdue, do you think we will see any decline in prices?

Daughter put offer on a new build Townhouse Sept '21 priced @ 1.275.000 m, after due diligence wasn't satisfactory her solicitor withdrew offer.
When relisted was priced @ 1.310.000m.
 Not sure whether there will be significant reduction, however anything heading South will be better than continuing North.
PS: She has now purchased a property.

Wait till they open up the borders and all the sanctuary seekers flood in again. They have to have homes...

Just noticed this
Auckland house prices and sales volumes fall in January: Barfoot & Thompson - NZ Herald
Perhaps this will confirm that prices are/about to head in the opposite direction of North

real estate prices dont go backwards.
they take longer to sell, there will be bargains to be had
but i dont see anyone losing money

Should they do so they will bounce even stronger is my thinking

we arent going to see the wholesale carnage of the market as we did in 2008, and even then houses didnt get cheaper, they stopped selling altogether., overnite. the GFC was driven by the sub prime bust in the usa.
so it might take 6 months or a year to sell your house, instead of three days, but i dont think we will see big capital losses.

The trouble is, we let greed overcome commonsense.

I will believe anything beyond ideas when they happen. Politics is 90% talk, 10% action.

Well Poto Williams struggled under Campbell's questioning, speaking of which where was Woods?
