Welcome to Lifestyle Living Autumn 2020
Being part of the rural fabric of New Zealand ticks more boxes than are possible to count. The appeal of lifestyle blocks is that they offer just that, a lifestyle change. They afford families with an opportunity for better living, lots of space, fresh air, enough land to have animals, and the potential for making money on the extra land.
there were 1,799 lifestyle property sales, compared to the 1,584 lifestyle property sales for the three months ended January 2019 (+13.6%) as per REINZ, February 2020. A total of 7,149 lifestyle properties were sold in the year to January 2020, on a par with the prior year. The value of lifestyle properties sold was $5.81 billion for the year to January 2020.
And, more and more people are looking for a lifestyle change. In the three months ended January 2020,

The table above depicts the change seen in New Zealand’s lifestyle block market over the last ten years. The impact of the Global Financial Crisis over 2007-2009 led to deteriorating financial conditions on both a national and global scale.

The market has made significant gains post GFC where back in 2010, the total lifestyle properties sold equalled $2.18 billion. Fortunately, the NZ lifestyle market has had a three-fold recovery in value over the last decade and now operating at levels substantially ahead of pre-GFC. The pressure on value still remains ahead of the supply of lifestyle stock across many of the regions, however, rural subdivisions are on the rise, reflecting both changes in local government zoning and economic drivers for rural land owners. Rural lifestyle living is very much an aspiration for many Kiwi’s, and it’s still attracting international interest too, particularly at the top end of the market. Motivations for purchase always vary, but a very consistent driver is quiet enjoyment. There are as many people seeking lifestyle properties to accommodate a growing family as there are those considering moving off the farm to retire, while still being able to keep doing what they love.

My own personal experience of owning a lifestyle block out in the Pohangina Valley in the northern Manawatu has seen our boys learn to ride motorbikes, our small bush block and creek provide recreational hunting opportunities for rabbits, possums, eels and ducks. There have even been bold claims (very unverified) of seeing wild kiwi in their early childhood days. It has also afforded opportunities to farm on a small scale, learning all the important life lessons of stock husbandry, and making a profit. More latterly it’s helped to break in a new farm dog (pup) which tested both our family, and property, to its limits, but we got there. So, you don’t have to own a property spanning as far as the eye can see to provide a country backdrop to everyday family life. Many others, however, are seeking much smaller blocks of 1ha or less being close to the town boundary and allowing space for hobbies, extra garaging and excellent value for money in terms of the quality of the build and scale of hard landscaping.
Property Brokers continues to respond to the broader market demand for lifestyle living through dedicated marketing and specialization of our hard-working sales consultant team. There is a lot to know about buying a lifestyle property, and we’ve outlined some of that in this magazine, and equally, preparing the property for sale requires specialist support.
We invest a lot in our training and marketing approach in support of this category. We are pleased to present a number of quality lifestyle options from up and down the country, and in this edition, highlight a number of fantastic properties throughout the Canterbury region.

Moving the fenceposts The decision to leave a history-filled family farm for a lifestyle block was not an easy one for John and Sue Nation. Three generations of Nation’s had proudly farmed sheep and beef in Punawaitai, 30 km east of Waipawa, for 101 years. So, the decision to move from Punawaitai’s steep coastal hill country to a 4.19 ha lifestyle block was a result of much deliberation and introspection. The word “retire” wasn’t ever in the Nation’s vocabularies. They envisaged their future as being a busy one, a continuation of chasing sheep and bulls, running holiday accommodation and a wedding venue, making scones, weighing bulls, doing GST and more. In 2018, however, after health concerns, John and Sue started thinking about downsizing, and how this would look for them. John was 70, slowing down, and the body was beginning to hurt. After the 5.3 magnitude earthquake and flood in 2011, which saw Central Hawke’s Bay’s coast get three times the April average rainfall in 72 hours, John and Sue’s time was consumed with trying and hoping to salvage everything. The inundation carried away 50 per cent of their pasture. It brought them to their knees, physically, emotionally, mentally, financially, to say nothing of the total devastation on the farm and homestead gardens. It took John and Sue seven years to rebuild the farm and gardens into a saleable proposition.
The most significant barrier to moving that they encountered though, was the weight of responsibility - thinking that they had a duty or obligation to the family, the farm, and the preservation of its history.
We feel like we’ve gained an extra 15 years of quality life and living. We now have time to smile, time to go fishing, to go racing, to enjoy each other, friends and family - we have gained so much precious time.”
When asked what finally triggered the move, John says, “Definitely our health. Stress is unhealthy; the floods and debt placed a lot of pressure on our health. That, and the fact that Sue was no longer fast enough to get out of the way of 600kg bulls! Our trustees thought it was the best news they had heard in years.”
Continuing on, “Our home is serene. We enjoy expansive uninterrupted sea views, have 4.19ha of land with two houses, one being passive income. We are enjoying the peace that our new home brings, and also, the peace that comes with knowing that we sold our beautiful farm to a stunning young couple (with two little boys) who have energy, and a passion for the land and the animals on it.”
Their focus shifted to finding the ideal retirement property that afforded them both the space, and expansive views, that they needed to expand their horizons, and lift their lives and spirits going forward. When asked whether it was all worth it, the reply is a resounding, yes. Saying, “This is the best thing that we’ve ever done for ourselves! We get to actually go out for breakfast, honestly, we couldn’t do that being hours out of town.
When asked what advice they would offer others thinking of making the same move, they reply, “It’s important to remember that this is your life and your journey. Be young and healthy enough to enjoy it. Life needs to be celebrated. Do it sooner rather than later. It is a huge decision packing up, and downsizing is a tough exercise, but the gains are considerable.”

A lifestyle change Has the thought of escaping city life got you dreaming of a picturesque quiet country property where the kids can explore, and the chooks and even possibly a couple of sheep are free to roam around?
lf you are looking for some fresh air and open space, or even just some peace away from the city, a lifestyle block could be a great option. While there may be a whole lot to love about living in the country, you will need to research and prepare when thinking of buying a lifestyle block that suits your needs.
First things first, what is a lifestyle block? Well, there isn’t an official parameter or land classification on what a lifestyle block is but a good rule of thumb is that the average lifestyle block is just shy of four hectares. A great tool to use if you are unsure of whether a property is a lifestyle block or not is: QV.co.nz - enter the address, and select the ‘Building Type’. Some councils also provide this information.
Research is imperative Research is always necessary when purchasing a property of any kind but is critical when thinking of buying rural ones as these come with a whole extra set of things to think about. While a wishlist is a great starting point, an issues list to be aware of, is equally as important. lssues could include:
6
•
The condition of the existing septic and plumbing system
•
Where are the local schools and will busses be available to collect them and drop them back?
•
What is broadband and cellphone reception like? Be sure to get in touch with internet providers to enquire about whether a new broadband line will be able to be set up (you cannot assume that if the neighbour has the internet, that you will be able to get it too as this is not always the case)
•
Be sure to check the distances from local rivers and wetlands - it’s important to assess the risk of flooding
More land = more responsibility Having more land to maintain can prove to be difficult. Make sure that you are up for the challenge, or, that you are able to afford help with more difficult jobs. lt is also a good idea to get your lawyer on board early to check titles, consents and other information that you gather in the process.
Are you aware of the rules? lt is important to remember that rural developments can be subject to rules that restrict what you can do. When talking to your lawyer, always ask that they check if there are any covenants on the property that may have an impact on a future business that you may want to run there; or any planned building projects. Rural properties (like all properties) can also have easements on the title which relate to access, water or power. Ask that your lawyer check the title, and check what the easements are. Also, ask that they check to see how these will have an impact on your rights and responsibilities as an owner. Examples could be: •
•
If the title allows a neighbour access to a piece of their land through your property, do you have any right to limit the type and frequency of that access if you buy it? There may be ‘unofficial’ easements operating; where the current owners may have an informal arrangement with their neighbours, but this may not remain when the property passes into new ownership.
Are you planning to use the property as a business?
Water, sewage and access - these can require more involvement in rural areas With many rural lifestyle blocks not being connected to sewage schemes, they instead rely on septic tanks or other sewage disposal systems. It is good to check the water sources for the property – does it have its own bore, and are there limits on the amount of water you can draw from it? What process needs to happen to ensure that it is safe to drink? What happens to the wastewater and sewage? Other things to consider are whether or not you are prepared for life with a septic tank, and also whether the current owner will ensure that the tank is empty as a condition of sale? Are you buying a block with an existing dwelling? Do you know what type of system has been installed and whether it has the appropriate permits or consents; or if there are any ongoing maintenance obligations? Are you looking at a bare block of land? Do you know whether resource consent will be required for sewage disposal, and what the current council requirements are? It may also be necessary to ensure that any current resource consents are transferred to you on settlement.
Access Will you be sharing a private road or right of way with any other properties, do you know what your responsibilities and potential costs for maintaining it will be? You may want to ask one of our rural real estate specialists these questions to help you decide if the property is right for you and your family: •
Where are the local schools, and does a school bus come near the lifestyle block?
As a general rule, if the property is currently being run as a business and is tax-registered the seller will probably add GST to the selling price, which essentially means you will pay an extra 15 percent. Before negotiating, clarify if the figure is GST inclusive, or exclusive.
•
How far are the closest shops and amenities?
•
ls there a motorway nearby and are there any NZTA plans for it?
Always ask that your lawyer or accountant check to see if the house or any other buildings on the property are GST-exempt. They will also be able to advise you on whether you need to be GST-registered.
•
What is the soil type, and which crops/plants suit it best?
•
Am l allowed to graze stock on the property?
•
Can l subdivide the land?
The Inland Revenue’s property tax decision tree is also a good place to start when trying to figure out your tax obligations.
lt is essential to go into a lifestyle change armed with knowledge. Our rural real estate specialists are on hand to help you with all of your questions. lf you see a property that sparks your interest – don’t hesitate to get in touch with us so that we can help you secure your block of paradise and live the lifestyle you’ve been dreaming of.
