Owen Vaughan Note from the editor
I
’m not going to lie: at the start of the Covid-19 crisis my gut feeling was house prices would fall. I wasn't the only one to think this, but the market went zig instead of zag and came out of lockdown stronger than expected. Across the country, agents report crowds at open homes, and a surge in enquiry from first home buyers. And a quick glance at auction results shows buyers are willing to stretch themselves. Buoyed by low interest rates, they have emerged from the Covid crisis thinking, ”Well the market didn’t crash so I'm going to get a first home or a better home no matter what.” But does that mean the market is deluding itself, given that mortgage holidays and wage subsidies are ending soon? Many of the factors supporting value levels remain in place, so a major downturn is unlikely but confidence levels could change. That's why the right data is important. Our new OneRoof-Valocity Covid Index indicates where the market is strong and where it is under pressure, and will help Kiwis make the best property decisions in the months ahead.

Where does the housing market go from here? Four reasons why house prices in New Zealand didn't collapsed in the wake of a devastating pandemic.
W
“Given the long-term damage Covid-19 has and will cause, I am not yet willing to deliver the headline ‘Economist says house price falls are over’.”
hen something big and bad comes along, our natural instinct is to run and hide until it passes by. We can’t help it. So, I think we can all be forgiven for adopting some fairly negative views on the housing market when we learned about Covid19 and what it would take to stop its spread in our community. It was common back in February and March to see forecasts that average New Zealand house prices would fall 10 to 15 per cent, with some punters who have got their price forecasts wrong every cycle and shock, picking declines of 20 per cent. My personal pick was for an average price decline of 5 to 10 per cent. But even this optimistic view — based on things like listings shortages, falling construction, sustained low interest rates, and most unemployed not owning houses – has so far proved too pessimistic. If we take as our starting point the three months running into February, then we see that for the month of June, average house prices around New Zealand were up 1.2 per cent from that period. Or, if you’re of the pessimistic bent, you can say that June prices on average were down 1.2 per cent from the month of March (which was up 9.1 per cent from a year earlier). I can produce data “proving” prices are both rising and falling. But I’m going to mash all these things together and say this. Across New Zealand, while the previous pace of increase in prices of about 2 per cent every three months has gone, prices on average are now flat. In Auckland, price rises the
Tony Alexander past year were averaging 1.6 per cent a quarter, and they are now flat. Outside Auckland, price rises were averaging 2.4 per cent a quarter, and they also are flat. Could it be that the price falls so widely predicted have simply been delayed? Those who believe this commonly cite these factors. ● Mortgage holidays end in September for some borrowers. ● Wage subsidies end by September and this will likely lead to more unemployment. ● There is a risk (shown by Victoria) of a second wave. ● The effects of near-zero net monthly migration will begin biting. ● Hopes of an early transtasman bubble have been dashed.
● Banks will soon be having hard conversations and forcing business closures and mortgagee sales. I agree with all these factors. But there are some big ones offsetting them which in all probability will continue to dominate as they have already done so far. Here are the main ones, though I could easily list several times more. 1. Owner-occupiers are choosing to upgrade their existing house rather than trade it for a new one. This will suppress listings and keep buyers scrambling for whatever may come on the market. 2. Statistics NZ originally told us that in the year to November 2019 the next migration gain was 42,000. So, at the start of this year we analysts figured maybe a 40,000 gain would optimistically occur this year, giving a full two calendar-year gain of about 80,000 people. The net estimated flow for the 12 months to November is now put at 64,000, and the net gain since then has been another 41,000 over the six months to

May. If the net gain for the rest of the year is zero, the two-year gain will be 105,000. Covid-19 has so far boosted our net migration gain and housing demand, not reduced it. 3. This recession is not a normal one which involves intense weakness in manufacturing and/or farming and construction. It is largely happening in the services sector, peopled by employees who are young, on variable incomes, earning lowish wages — and not owning houses. 4. Confidence about interest rates remaining low is likely even more intense now than four months ago. This doesn’t just mean low mortgage financing costs. It also means continuing low (and still falling) term deposit rates which will encourage more investors to seek other assets like property — which is exactly the intention of the Reserve Bank in printing money. Given the long-term damage which our fight against Covid19 has and will cause, I am not yet willing to deliver the headline “Economist says house price falls are over”. But I find myself saying exactly the same thing now as I was saying from the second half of 2009 following the Global Financial Crisis. If anyone looking to purchase a property were to ask me whether they should act now or wait for potential price falls, my response will be, as it was back then, I see no good reason for waiting and would be looking for a property now. After all, if we have flat house prices now with banks making getting a mortgage the hardest any of us have seen since 1984, imagine what will happen when they revert to more normal lending practices. - Tony Alexander is an economics commentator and a former chief economist at BNZ.
COVER STORY
HEALTH CHECK The spread of Covid-19 brought unprecedented change to the housing market. But after lockdown, buyers and sellers defied the forecasts of doom, and real estate came to life again. JAMES WILSON tracks an unpredictable market
W
hen the last Oneroof Property Report came out, at the start of March, few would have guessed that the housing market was a few short weeks away from a total shutdown. Back then there was momentum in the market and economists were predicting house prices would rise. But by the end of March, the momentum was lost and experts feared the worst, forecasting price falls of 10 to 20 percent. The word “unprecedented” has been used a lot to describe the Covid-19 crisis. Cliche or not, it's a word that aptly sums up the impact of the lockdown
period. Never before in New Zealand's history had the property market and the framework that supports it been shut down. While it’s too early to tell what the full impact of Covid-19 will be on the housing market, we do know it’s more important than ever to focus on the collation, analysis and correct application of available data to ensure that any decisions made are from an informed position. Conversely, the risk of relying on misleading or incomplete data, or data that may be biased towards a particular outcome, has never been greater. Before we dive into the data, let’s take a look at how the market performed once the
Alert Level Four lockdown came into force on March 26, and in the weeks after restrictions were eased and the country returned to normal. 1. Sales volumes drop: Confidence is king when it comes to the housing market, and sales volumes for April were well down on the same period last year. Much of this can be attributed to lockdown restrictions such as no open homes, no valuations, and no physical auctions — although in the initial weeks of lockdown, there was a lot of uncertainty which fed into predictions of house price falls and a severe economic recession. 2. Vendors sit on the sidelines: Listing numbers as

the country moved out of lockdown in May were down on the same period last year, as homeowners took a wait-and see approach to the market. This in turn creates heightened demand for the stock that does come to market. 3. Interest rates cut: One of the immediate responses to Covid-19 was a cut to the Official Cash Rate, which most high street banks passed on to customers. This reduction allowed those who were already looking to buy before lockdown to stretch themselves. 4. Pent-up demand: The drop in new listings and low interest rates, combined with Continued on page 4
COVER STORY pent-up demand, lead to a quick change in the market. Buyer activity picked up, and properties started selling at prelockdown prices. Value levels across much of the country have bounced back, but some locations — such as Queenstown — and property types, particularly apartments, are exposed. 5. Vendors return (but slowly): Listings numbers for June and July strengthened as vendors returned to the market in an attempt to capitalise on rising prices. However, anecdotal evidence from agents and listing numbers show demand outstripping supply. 6. Back to normal: Lately, market participants in some locations have revealed a return to normality in the sense that some of the “fear” of what may happen to the housing market has gone away, with prices reflecting a demand for wellpresented housing stock. The OneRoof-Valocity Covid Index When we look at the housing market using traditional methodology, we run the risk of misinterpreting what's going on in the market. According to latest OneRoof Valocity figures, every territorial authority, bar three, saw a 12-month rise in its median property value, with 33 recording double-digit increases. But the increases are more a reflection of the fact these locations had experienced significant value growth in the six months before lockdown. To accurately measure the market since start of the Covid19 crisis, OneRoof and Valocity have created an index that covers a range of different metrics. By breaking down what’s been selling together with the nature of the housing stock in any given location, we can track the actual changes in individual submarkets more effectively. The OneRoof-Valocity index has applied a baseline figure to property values in every region and territorial authority in New Zealand (where possible the index has been applied at suburb level). Property values on March 25, 2020, the day before the country went into lockdown, are set at 1000 on the index. Every sale since that date has been analysed and a value applied, which has then been tracked in accordance with the baseline value, allowing subtle changes in the market to be measured. The index shows the impact of the lockdown and how property values have changed since the country returned to normal trading conditions. You can also begin to see the disparity (and danger) of relying solely upon the traditional 12-month value level movement. For example, the median value in Dunedin rose 19.8 per cent in the last 12 months. However, on the index Dunedin house values have slipped 2.5 per cent.
What do the numbers show? The housing market had been gathering steam in the months before Covid-19 struck, driven by strong growth in the regions and a resurgent Auckland market. Since lockdown the market has been subdued but positive, up 0.5 per cent on the index. At a regional level, value growth since March 25 has been a mixed bag. In the 12 months leading to into lockdown, the index reveals that seven of New Zealand 16 regions experienced double-digit value growth, with Gisborne out in front with a more than 25 per cent increase. Post-lockdown, the rate of growth has stalled across the board, with no region experiencing more than 4 per cent growth since lockdown (Manawatu-Whanganui is the top performer with 3.77 per cent growth). Five regions have seen a drop in values on the index — Otago, Northland, West Coast, Nelson and Wellington. The largest decrease is in Otago, which is down 3.42 per cent, driven by the softening of values in Queenstown Lakes. When the index is run at a Territorial Authority level we begin to see more variation: of the 72 TAs monitored, 24 are now showing value declines since lockdown, the top five largest being QueenstownLakes (-7.7 per cent), ThamesCoromandel (-4.8 per cent), Whangarei (-3.2 per cent), Dunedin (-2.5 per cent) and Kapiti Coast (-1.9 per cent). The best performing housing markets in the 12 months before March 25 — Gisborne, Dunedin, Whanganui, Horowhenua and Rangitikei, all of which saw growth of between 19 and 26 per cent — have stalled postlockdown, and in Dunedin's case slid. The TAs that were running hot pre-Covid were generally lower value locations targeted by investors, who have largely adopted a wait-and-see mentality, easing some of the hype and demand in these locations.
performance of New Zealand’s main urban metros on the index, the numbers are slightly more positive, with four out of the seven registering values lifts post-lockdown — Hamilton (up 1.86 per cent), Tauranga (+1.22 per cent), Wellington (+1.05 per cent), and Christchurch (+0.47 per cent). Despite an overall dip, there is positivity in Auckland's submarkets, with Franklin up 0.42 per cent and Papakura up 2.04 per cent and Auckland City climbing back to where it was on March 25. While there is significant variation in the performance of certain property types in each of these locations (Auckland Central's apartment market is exposed to significant volatility), the major metros are in a stronger position than smaller regional housing markets as they tend to have more employment opportunities and more buyers who are purchasing for the long-term utility rather than short-term capital growth. In fact, the slide in QueenstownLakes and Dunedin reinforces this hypothesis as both were hot investor markets pre-Covid-19 and Queenstown-Lakes’ position as an employment centre has suffered from the closure of our borders.

comparing the rate growth on the index in the 12 months before lockdown to the rate of growth post-lockdown, we can see the upper price band ($2m-plus) has been impacted the most by Covid-19. While sales volumes in this band are still very low, the downward trend is similar to one

that emerged post-GFC, when higher value housing stock was the first to respond to changing market conditions, with buyers in this bracket more influenced by international market conditions than others. The second largest change to the rate of growth lies in the $0-$500,000 price bracket, where there is a high percentage of investors. The slide may be further evidence of the waitand-see mentality taking hold in this buyer group. - James Wilson is director of valuation and innovation at OneRoof's data partner, Valocity.

Dunedin came into lockdown hot, but it was a market driven heavily by investors, a buyer group that has retreated. First home buyers have not stepped in to fill the gap as much as in other locations so we’ve seen since a softening of values post Covid. It’s too early to tell how long this may last.

Queenstown has seen the largest decline post-lockdown. The fear factor is prevalent among a lot of buyer groups and there has been a massive drop off in high value transactions. The data points to potential volatility ahead - there’s a high share of vacant sites.

COMMENT
Ashley Church
O
ne of my great passions is the discovery of meaningful patterns in New Zealand property data. It’s a passion borne of my view that the numbers always tell the real story and it’s a pursuit to which I’ve devoted significant time in recent years in an effort to better understand the market and why it does the things that it does. In many cases, this research throws up results which are at odds with the prevailing narrative of the day. Examples of this would be the discovery that foreign buyers actually made very little difference to house prices prior to the introduction of the foreign buyers ban in 2018, that “ghost homes” make virtually no difference to house prices, that the Reserve Bank’s loan-tovalue-ratio restrictions did not bring down house prices or stabilise the property market, that property investors do not push house prices up and that New Zealand has never led the world in home ownership – despite beliefs that held sway at one time or other but which ultimately proved to be untrue under the glare of market data.
Will the election cool the housing market? In the past Kiwis have put buying and selling decisions on hold until after polling day.
Of course, not all views are debunked. Sometimes research actually confirms strongly held views. This is certainly the case in respect of the belief that house prices broadly double in some parts of New Zealand every ten or eleven years and have done so every decade over the past four decades. It’s also true of the belief that the New Zealand property market doesn’t crash – or, at least that it hasn’t done so in almost forty five years according to the firmly established data. But what of the view that the property market cools in election years – particularly in the months leading up to the election? This phenomenon was certainly at play in the months leading up to the 2014 and 2017 elections according to data prepared by OneRoof data partner Valocity in 2017, which showed that between the announcement of the date of the election in March 2014 and the election in September of that year there was an average drop in sales of 23 percent per month in Auckland – followed by an immediate recovery to previous levels, post-election. The same trend was once
again in play in the lead up to the September election in 2017. In the 12 months between July 2016 and July 2017 sales volumes across the country were down by 55.4 percent (4,229 properties) – with the majority of that drop taking place after the election date was announced in February of that year. Precisely why property markets should flatten in the months prior to an election is a matter of some debate – but, in my view, it’s largely the result of uncertainty around the
outcome of the election – particularly where a party is proposing a policy or policies which are radically at odds with the status quo. This uncertainty feeds into market confidence and causes punters to put their plans on hold until after the election. But has this phenomenon been playing out again in the months leading up to the September election? No – and for very good reason. Covid-19 has completely changed the ‘normal’ dynamic of the market

in 2020, in two ways. Firstly, the lockdown period effectively froze the market, in time, for almost two months rendering any data which covers that period meaningless and made any comparison with previous election years pointless. Secondly, an unusual spike in house sales activity which started late last year and was still evident prior to Covid-19 has meant that demand has outstripped supply in many regions of the country. This means that low sales volumes can’t be reliably read as a reflection of market confidence when they could just as likely be due to the limited stock available for purchase. For all of these reasons, and as with most other areas of the economy, Covid-19 has altered the ‘usual’ landscape and changed the rules which would normally apply. What we do know is that, in 2011, 2014 and 2017, the market took off again after the elections in those years. Whether that will happen this time is far from certain. - Ashley Church is a property commentator for OneRoof.co.nz. Email him at ashley@nzemail.com
Bedpost …. more than just a bed store
B
edpost at 44 Dickens Street, Napier is the shop that you must definitely put on top of the list when looking for your next bed …but not only beds as there are plenty of related products to browse. Mike White has been the owner of Bedpost in the Bay for the last 14 years, although he started in the bedding industry way back in 1989. Therefore Mike has an abundance of knowledge regarding the bed market and will pass on that knowledge to you. This will enable you to make an informed decision and also select the correct bed to suit your needs. “I can only imagine how hard it would be not knowing anything about beds and going out to spend what seems an large amount of money for something that is so important as a bed. Actually you spend almost the best part of 26 years of your life in a bed, so why wouldn’t you go to the place that has the most comprehensive range of options along with the best knowledge,” Mike says. Mike is also proud to stock a variety of bedroom furniture, along with an exceptional range of pillows and luxury linen. Here you can browse everything from pine to New Zealand solid Rimu frames and furniture, and great quality beds and mattress brand. Much of the stock is made in New Zealand which allows your purchase to be custom made to suit your needs if necessary. After talking to Mike for a while you will soon realise that he is passionate about his business and he’s always focused on the current trends bearing in mind the needs and wants of each and every client. There’s an excellent range of beds to choose from and each can be demonstrated by Mike and you can do a “sleep test.” He’s proud of the huge range of beds on offer including some of the leading brands in the world such as Tempur, Sealy Posturepedic , Design Mobel, Dreamwool, Beautyrest, SleepMaker and Soundasleep, to name but a few. “People ask …why do you have so many different beds in
store? It’s simple really…not everyone’s the same!” “If you’re struggling for a good night’s sleep I may well have the perfect solution - Tempur! These mattresses provide outstanding comfort and support for a feeling of instant relaxation. They’re selling really quickly at the moment and the feedback from my clients has been amazing. Many say they will never go back to a conventional bed.

Real estate leaders around the country are cautiously optimistic, though there are still many challenges ahead. CATHERINE MASTERS reports
O
neRoof polled the country’s real estate leaders and agents on the challenges the industry faced during and after the lockdown and asked them what they thought the long-term impact of Covid-19 would be. Their answers shed light on what was a unprecedented time for real estate and provide buyers and sellers an idea of where the housing market might head in spring and summer. Many agents missed the faceto-face contact with clients and colleagues through April and much of May, but took advantage of the time to learn new technology tricks. When lockdown lifted they were back at it like never before. While predicting the future is always uncertain, one branch head says there could be job losses ahead. “I’ve seen it during the GFC, that we will most likely lose a few thousand sales people that have been carried by the recent market conditions,” says Ritesh Verma, branch manager at Property Brokers in Whanganui. But agents that look after their database will survive and some will even flourish. Verma believes the outlook for Whanganui’s housing market — one of the hottest before Covid-19 struck — is positive; the town’s economy is not reliant on tourist spending, he says, and stock levels and buying activity are strong, with houses fetching solid prices. Like many agents who responded to OneRoof’s questions, he worries about doom-laden predictions having a negative effect on the market. “I fear if everyone watches the news and gets on the bandwagon about a market crash we will talk ourselves into one,” he says. “We are ever the optimist, of course, but naive we are not, so our agents are working harder and smarter, saving more, and generally knuckling down.” Crystal ball gazing John Bartley, managing director of Bayleys Whanganui, says his team also took the opportunity lockdown provided to regroup, learn and plan. Included in that was a promotion offering free advertising and financial support for homeowners needing to sell their property. “We knew there were some homeowners in our community doing it tough and the promotion provided some practical help and breathing space,” Bartley says. He too is upbeat about the market: “I think Whanganui real estate is in a good place with lots of new listings and interest. With the added benefit of low interest rates, things are looking buoyant. We continue to get enquiries from the larger centres and I believe that more than ever, regional New Zealand is becoming a more attractive place to live.” While uncertainty around
jobs, the election and the pandemic could put downward pressure on house prices, Harcourts agent Sue Ellis and Philippa Ivory, general manager of Ray White Whanganui, believe the fundamentals of the town’s property market are strong. Whanganui, Ellis says, offers buyers quality lifestyle and good-value homes, and what happens in the future is just crystal ball gazing. Ivory adds: “Whanganui has a strong manufacturing and rural economic base, great weather and several significant sporting and cultural events planned. “With the influx of government investment into ‘shovel-ready’ projects, job prospects look okay, and so does the housing market.” Confidence and concerns Heath Young, chief operating officer of Realty Services which covers Bayleys and Eves in the Waikato, Bay of Plenty and Taranaki, says the lockdown was challenging because real estate is a contact sport. “Our business is built on forming great relationships with our vendors, buyers, landlords and tenants, so not being able to host viewings, do face-to-face meetings or operate normally was challenging,” he says. Young expects the pandemic will have a lasting impact on markets or asset classes that are reliant on tourism, or migration. Transacting, he says, relies on confidence and demand, and supply factors such as regional migration, job security and bank lending conditions. “Job security is the big unknown in terms of impact but as with previous financial shocks to the market, which are the only comparisons available to an event such as a global pandemic, the market does in time recover. It’s more a question of the length of time this recovery will take.” Letterbox Realty agent Tracy Beaufill says the Rotorua market remains as hot now as it was before the pandemic struck. She believes the lockdown has seen the industry embrace innovative practices that have improved the buying and selling process. “Contracts don’t have to be signed face-to-face with agents, and [there is now] more online communication. There was no paper advertising during lockdown, however, people continued to look at property online,” she says. Shona Duncan, principal of New Zealand Sotheby’s International Realty in Rotorua, says the market’s recovery was quicker than many expected, but while sale prices are up, sales volumes are down, although recent results are encouraging. Simon Martin, managing director of Harcourts in Tauranga, agrees that the dearth of stock is a concern. “Heading into the Covid-19 lockdown listings were already at record lows compared to previous
years and this is still the situation now,” he says. But interest rates are at an alltime low, LVR restrictions have eased, and the large number of New Zealanders coming home will need somewhere to live. “The way New Zealand has dealt with the Covid situation must give confidence to the market,” he says. Simon Tremain, managing director of Tremain Real Estate, says while the fall-out from Covid-19 is yet to be seen in Hawke’s Bay, any negative impact will be short-lived. “New Zealand has weathered the storm exceptionally well and providing people have jobs, our economy will continue to thrive,” he says. Property will always remain the number one investment for New Zealanders, he says. “The regional spread of our population and the housing shortage in both ownership, rental and emergency housing is real. These facts add up to one thing — further demand and growth in the housing market.” Rhythm disrupted Joe Snee, regional manager for Property Brokers in Hawke’s Bay and Gisborne, says the speed at which the lockdown came into effect presented challenges. The situation was difficult to navigate, he says, and throwing in the legislative changes to the rental market meant information was constantly changing. “Yes, it impacted the business rhythm but more importantly it challenged the mental resilience of our teams and it illustrated just how strong our people are.” The impact of the crisis is uncertain, Snee says. “I field a lot of questions about the lasting impacts of Covid on the real estate market. In my opinion, with a global pandemic of this magnitude, it wouldn’t be right to think it will not have an impact on our local market. “However, to what degree is another question, and I remain positive about the market. With record low cash rates, uncertainty in financial markets, and a number of people repatriating back to New Zealand I am confident the market will show some resilience.” As for the coming months, the goal posts are changing and there’s an election around the corner. There is the potential for legislative change, tighter regulations and then, as always,
“The way New Zealand has dealt with Covid must give confidence to the market.”
Agents report that demand is outstripping supply in key markets.
the unknown of the local economic performance. “These are all aspects that we will keep a close eye on moving forward, However, all we can do is control what we can control as a company, and to us that is continuing to provide high levels of service to our clients and ensure we do the best by them.” In Northland, agents report challenges around supply and demand. Tony Grindle, general manager for Bayleys Northland, says the market has lots of qualified, cashed-up buyers competing for a dwindling supply of stock. The lack of sales over April and May did have an impact but, “We are learning to not stress about things outside of our control — better to take advantage of the opportunities presented,” Grindle says. He says the real impact on real estate in the region may be felt around increased demand for protein and the supply of New Zealand-grown agri product to a market offshore unable to meet their own domestic demand. “Northland is well positioned to leverage our agricultural and horticultural industries. In residential, I don’t consider the Covid hangover to be significant. Central government had effectively already stopped offshore buyers and returning Kiwis may provide an additional buyer source.” September the month to watch Prolonged border closures and new community outbreaks are concerns but, “Once again, if we accept the mantra of only worrying about those things we can control, we don’t have any fears”, Grindle says. There may be challenges around capital and adversity to risk, but Northland is in a strong position. “Pre-Covid, immigration was increasing faster than any other province,
employment was at the highest level and we were benefiting from our position on Auckland’s boundary.” Paul Beazley, general manager of Eves Whangarei, says prices have remained at February and March levels, and while sales numbers are down, that is to be expected. “We may see the impact on price once mortgage deferments are finished, subsidies are at an end and the effect of unemployment levels come home to roost, which is likely to be felt in the spring,” he says. “There may be some forced sales, but I don’t think we’ll see too many stressed sales.” Martin Dear, manager of Barfoot & Thompson Whangarei, says business has returned to pre-Covid levels, with first-home buyers, investors and expats showing interest in the region. “There have been predictions of lower prices but we have not seen evidence of a market slowdown. Northland is a region of choice and the lockdown has allowed people to refocus on their future. I think we will continue to see demand and development and this will drive growth in the market.” Mike Beazley, business owner of Harcourts Whangarei, says the end of the wage subsidy and mortgage deferral schemes “could put real pressure on some owners as to whether they can continue with their mortgages”. “Presently the demand for good property is exceeding the supply. However, it would not be unreasonable to say there could be an easing of prices in the coming months.” He adds: “The market has not dropped to the depths many feared and the recovery is faster than we saw after the GFC in 2008. The data to date indicates that it is much better than many expected and while there is real reason for optimism, September will be the month to watch.”

RECESSION REBUILDS Top end of town takes to largescale home makeovers in lieu of expensive trips abroad.
T
he abrupt halt to expensive overseas trips as a result of Covid-19 seems to have led to an increased thirst for largescale renovation work, as wealthy Kiwis earmark their holiday money for home makeovers. Architect Jane Aimer, director of Scarlet Architects, which specialises in high-end renovations of classic villas and bungalows, was shocked by the amount of enquiries her firm received after the country came out of lockdown. “To our surprise, we had lots of work and it wasn’t long before it we were back to business as usual,” she said. She’s noticed people’s priorities have shifted as a result of the pandemic. “We were designing a villa renovation for one couple, who changed their minds completely and are moving to the country,” she says. Aimer notes that her clients appear to be confident they’ll get through the anticipated economic downturn, and since they can’t travel overseas, they’re using the money they’ve saved elsewhere. Kitchen designers are busy too. Celia Visser, of Celia Visser Design, says that she’s been working a lot with people who got tired of their surroundings

during lockdown. “I think they saw all the things that were dated, or somehow wrong, and decided to do something about it and their priorities probably changed because of our borders being closed,” she says. Money doesn’t seem to be an issue, with most of Visser’s customers opting the best products and best materials. “There’s a definite demand for using New Zealand-made wherever possible, which is what I do anyway, and that
means I haven’t seen any major product shortages, but I know there is a delay in getting certain appliances in from overseas,” she says. Based on the number of enquiries she’s had, she expects to stay busy for some time. Landscaper Tony Murrell, of Murrell Gardens, has been similarly busy. “It’s phenomenal and certainly not like a normal winter, when we generally work on booked projects,” he says. Murrell says that people who
had made plans for their gardens over the early autumn days of lockdown were very keen to get started on those revamps once restrictions were lifted, and his phone was running “red hot”. “The only problem is that the nurseries we use are running out of stock – especially in hedging, and unfortunately some smaller ones have closed down. I’m having to source plants from further down the North Island, and even the South Island.”
Murrell says that the landscape design industry is so busy at present, he’s unable to find the number of gardeners he needs, but he knows that many people displaced from other industries, which were negatively impacted by Covid19 are re-training, in horticulture, and says he hopes to employ some of them in due course. Meanwhile, it isn’t just plants that are in short supply. “I’ve been waiting for over two weeks for some fencing pickets, because the timber people can’t keep up with demand.” At Pools by Design, director Toby Borrett says the day before lockdown began, he was forced to fill in a pool he’d been digging. “That was a bit frustrating, but we couldn’t leave a huge hole in the ground over winter!” Since life has almost returned to normal, he too has found his business rebounding and agrees that in many cases it’s likely being funded by overseas trip savings accounts. He says that being a bigticket item, only a certain number of people are going to put well upwards of $100,000 into a pool. “And I think they’re also the sort of people who still feel safe in terms of income.”

IN YOUR NEIGHBOURHOOD CENTRAL HAWKE’S BAY
RURAL HEARTLAND
The two main towns of Central Hawke’s Bay are Waipukurau and Waipawa, with many smaller, charming settlements surrounding them, on a rich inland plain, reports LOUISE RICHARDSON
U
ntil the 1970s this part of the country was amongst New Zealand’s most successful agricultural areas and Waipukarau flourished, meeting the demands of wealthy farmers in the golden 1950s. Unfortunately, the downturn in the 1980s was permanent for many rural industries but the Central Hawke’s Bay region has moved on and found new sources of wealth and success, to supplement agriculture. Forestry and fishing now make up a significant part of Central
Hawke’s Bay’s economy. Who lives here and what do they do? Retirees are big fans of Central Hawke’s Bay; selling their farms and downsizing to townhouses, so it’s not surprising that 23 per cent of residents are over 60 and 41 per cent of properties have only two occupants. Twenty per cent of households have an income ranging between $30,000 and $50,000. Common occupations include labourers, at 22 per cent, and managers at 17 per cent.

What’s to love? Where to start? Geographically, Central Hawke’s Bay offers mountain peaks and sandy beaches, with lots of related outdoor pursuits, including hunting and fishing. There’s mountain biking at Pukeora Hill Park, along with golf and aviation. This is an arty community so there are lots of painters and potters to check out, as well as stately homes to explore and many interesting museums too. Residents also enjoy a wonderful work-life balance and while the cost of housing has been creeping up, there’s still scope for first-home buyers to enter the market, with a wide range of properties available, including everpopular lifestyle blocks.

Buying and selling Like so many other regional centres, Central Hawke’s Bay is enjoying a quick bounce-back after the Covid-19 lockdown and agents there are as busy as ever. Joe Snee, Property Brokers’ regional manager, says that there’s plenty of buyer interest, much of it from Aucklanders who are seeking flexibility in order to work remotely, and a more relaxed lifestyle. “Forty-eight per cent of our sales in June were to people moving from other places.” He says that multiple offers are common, and one property recently had eight parties keen to buy it. “It’s lack of stock that’s driving up prices and,
ironically, potential vendors are holding off selling, because they don’t have much choice in terms of finding their next property — basically, there’s nowhere for them to go.” Meanwhile, James Macpherson, principal at Bayleys, says that postlockdown, people are itching to get into the country where they feel safe and free with space to roam. “Nobody wants to be locked up in a little apartment, so lifestyle blocks and farms are all doing well. “Of course, there’s now the very real possibility of working from home, so it means you can live practically wherever you like.” He says that returning expats

“Forty-eight per cent of our sales in June were to people moving from other places.” Joe Snee are making enquiries about Central Hawke’s Bay. “We’ve got an offer on one at the moment from a Kiwi in London.” Stuart Christensen, general manager of Tremains Napier, is noticing all the same dynamics in the current market. “Central Hawke’s Bay is still going well for us and we’re seeing some amazing prices realised,” he says. “And the prices overall are holding, so that’s good.” He says that multiple offers are common and, demand still outstrips supply. “In a nutshell, it’s all good here.”
