Summary
Housing prices in a third of New Zealand suburbs are still falling — some areas hit lows worse than mid-2023, even as banks claimed the market had bottomed out. Wellington Central dropped 15%, while others like Point England and Ohakune saw steep declines, leaving many homeowners deep in negative equity. Meanwhile, the South Island thrives — Runanga and Arrowtown surged over 30% — revealing a stark regional split. Expect a rough winter for North Island buyers, while South Island cities like Christchurch and Dunedin stay strong. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
