New: The New Zealand Property Pulse

At New Zealand Sotheby’s International Realty, our strength lies in the calibre of our agents.

They are pragmatic, deeply connected to their communities, and finely attuned to our clients, particularly at the high end. When markets are starting to move, they tend to see it first.

With this in mind, we are proud to launch the inaugural New Zealand Sotheby’s International Realty Property Pulse, a snapshot of sentiment drawn directly from our network.

Sitting alongside nationally available sales data, the Pulse adds a level of nuance: local knowledge and the why behind the what.

Based on a recent survey of our agents, the insights confirm what many on the ground already feel: our residential property market is gaining momentum.

"But the true strength of the Pulse lies in what it reveals about people - what is motivating them and how that shapes their choices."

Whether upsizing, downsizing or shifting for lifestyle reasons, buyers and sellers are primarily driven by tangible factors such as family needs, changing routines, school zones and access to work and amenities. They want homes that support the way they actually live.

At the high end, real estate remains an essential portfolio component for ultra-high-net-worth individuals and even in uncertain times, New Zealand’s premium homes and the lifestyle they offer hold enduring appeal .

We have always believed in intelligent real estate: insight, timing and strategy. The Property Pulse is a new way to share that, and we are proud to bring it to life.
