Summary
Covid turned New Zealand’s housing market into a wild ride—prices skyrocketed on low rates and lockdowns, but now the market’s reset, returning to where it would’ve been without the pandemic. Without the boom, average prices would’ve stayed around $1.57M nationally, but instead, they’ve cooled to $955K, with cities like Wellington and Gisborne seeing similar corrections. While Australia’s market kept climbing, NZ’s correction has made homes more affordable again, giving first-home buyers a fresh chance. Experts say the market’s back to normal—no more double-digit price jumps, just steady, realistic growth. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
