The Black Book Issue 97 - Current to 10 May 2024

HELLO.

Editor's Letter:

The first quarter of 2024 has brought a welcome resurgence to the real estate market across New Zealand. Market conditions have stabilized, providing buyers and sellers with more predictability as they make their next move.

The data tells a compelling story of a resilient and thriving market environment. Sales volumes have surged 37.4% year-over-year, sale prices are up 11.3%, and new listings have risen a healthy 23.8% according to our proprietary Pulse platform analytics from our 195 offices nationwide.

One standout trend is the 84% spike in auction activity over the last 12 months. This transparency in the bidding process, with a set sale date and unconditional purchase, holds widespread appeal for Kiwis eager to move beyond the post-pandemic market volatility.

While negotiations outside of auctions take more time as purchases are contingent on buyers selling their own properties first, the increased choice from higher listings is boosting buyer confidence to explore their options.

Persistent affordability constraints from elevated mortgage rates, business profitability challenges, and global uncertainty are paradoxically helping maintain market balance by curbing overexuberance.

The Reserve Bank's decision to hold the Official Cash Rate at 5.5% shows comfort that current measures are effective. The growing expectation of a rate cut in August is an encouraging sign for buyers.

Challenges remain, but there is ample cause for optimism this season. Exemplary market expertise and the latest pricing data are essential to informed decisions amidst fluctuations. Our national Ray White results reflect this thriving landscape, further reasons why real estate results are better through the yellow door.

Warm regards,

Ray White Epsom

REMUERA

PROPERTY FEATURE

Stretching across a sunny north facing ridgeline overlooking a canopy of native and exotic trees, the design concept behind this 1980s home resonates with northern California modern architecture of the time, with its warm vertical cedar cladding and unobtrusive low roof line at the front.

CALIFORNIA DREAMING

Stepping inside the main entry reveals a volume of open plan spaces including split level living and dining areas forming a central axis for everyday family life. This large room flows outward through glass doors to a north facing deck overlooking a beautiful camphor laurel tree with its elegantly shaped bows, an ideal place for entertaining under the stars.

Just off the kitchen, an internal 'bridge' connects the public spaces to the private, leading to a discrete master suite with walk in wardrobe, the laundry area and second bedroom and study. Elevated and north facing, the outlook is over mature gardens with its shaded walkways and a sunny small orchard complete with feijoas and a variety of citrus. The second 'wing' on the eastern side of the home includes a further two bedrooms and a bathroom.

The spatial organisation of the floor plan presents options with the potential for two semi self-contained areas, both with independent external access presenting opportunities for extended families or a home base work environment. With scope for a few upgrades, the home is also very liveable as it is.

A convenient location within a popular Remuera street, the property has easy access to sought after schools, local amenities and the motorway.

Set Date of Sale:

4.00pm, 8 May (unless sold prior)

The kitchen finishes combine dark contrasting white lacquered cabinetry, oven with gas hob and ample storage. wall adds comfort over winter

engineered stone bench tops with cabinetry, a breakfast bar, a free standing storage. A wood stove with decorative schist winter months to the whole space. Lynn

The scene is slowly being set for some quick interest rate cuts

The Reserve Bank will need to consider whether or not it has over-restrained the economy with higher for longer interest rates

ANALYSIS: Last week I wrote about the deteriorating labour market and how people’s rising worries about employment are affecting housing. Because the employment cycle lags the economic cycle, even when we are initially out of recession and activity is picking up, the labour market will continue to worsen – probably well into 2025.

Does this mean the housing market will be weak well into 2025? Probably not. But until the Reserve Bank recognises it has over-restricted the economy and it cuts interest rates quickly, the current situation of a flat market is likely to persist.

View More from Tony on OneRoof

Flat in the context of residential real estate doesn’t mean no change in prices but rather when looking past the month to month fluctuations there is little evidence of much price gain. For instance, if we look at the average over three-month periods, we see that in the September quarter of last year Auckland house prices on average rose by 2.6%.

They then rose 2.5% in the December quarter but have now declined by 0.8% in the first three months of this year. In Auckland the number of properties listed for sale at the end of March was 23% higher than in July last year so buyers have extra stock to peruse at their leisure.

In fact things are so leisurely now for buyers only 6% of agents in Auckland responding in my monthly survey with NZHL now say that buyers are displaying FOMO. Back in September that was 45%. The pandemic frenzy peak was 90% in October 2020.

The net proportion of real estate agents in Auckland saying that more investors are actively looking for property has turned negative by 5% from a positive 16% in September. The net proportion saying they are seeing more first home buyers has dipped from 56% to only 12%.

A key characteristic of this recent fresh period of market weakness is a backing away of young buyers to a greater degree than the backing off of investors. The only small investor change looks like it is due to not that many deciding to advance their buying anyway over the second half of last year. They are affected by large increases in some key costs such as for rates and insurance, debt servicing charges are cyclically high, and many may simply be ageing and looking to fund their retirement through selling their investment asset.

The young buyers have probably pulled back firmly from their earlier very strong interest because of the new development running through the economy and discussed last week – employment worries. This is actually something quite important.

The negative impact on the economy and therefore eventually inflation has to date not been assisted much by the labour market. The unemployment rate has only gone from an unsustainably low 3.2% to 4% and wages growth has only minimally slowed down.

But now job worries are acting to rein in household spending and that is something the Reserve Bank will have to increasingly take into account as we advance through this year. It will be discussing whether the overall degree of restraint on the economy is turning out to be more than it think it needs, especially with a fresh deterioration underway in the outlook for world growth due to heightened tensions and actions in the Middle East.

The scene is slowly being set for some quick interest rate declines – but definitely not in the next few months.

MICHELADA

Recipe by Claire Aldous

SERVES: 1

METHOD

Coat the rim of a tall glass in chilli and celery salt (see recip e below). Fill the glass with ice cubes. One-third fill with tomato juice, then add 1 tablespoon tequila, 2 splashes of Worcestershire sauce and 2-3 splashes of hot sauce, or more to taste (I used a chipotle hot sauce). Top up with chilled beer (we used a Mexican beer, Sol), squeeze over a lime wedge, give it a stir and serve immediately.

CHILLI AND CELERY SALT COATING

1 tablespoon ground chilli

1 tablespoon sea salt, roughly crushed 1 teaspoon celery salt

TO COAT

1 egg white, lightly beaten until frothy

Combine the chilli and both salts in a saucer. Dip the rim of a glass in egg white then in the salt mix. Makes enough salt for several glasses. Store in an airtight jar.

from Issue #89. March, 2020

Bloody Mary meets a chilled beer! Who knew this combo would work so well? I love mine heavily spiced with hot sauce and don’t skimp on coating the rim of the glass, it’s part of the drinking experience.
