2015 has been a solid year for real estate sales in the Wanaka area.

Up until 31 August 2015, $275m worth of property has been sold, according to the Real Estate Institute’s statistics. Compare this to the 2014 total of $282m. If we continue at the same rate, 2015 is easily going to exceed this figure.

Around Wanaka, high numbers of section sales continue with first home buyers and investors getting into the market. At the lower end of the market, this is likely to be a reflection of the shortage of houses available. Interest rates continue to be attractive, affording extra security for future planning.

Wanaka’s breathtaking scenery and lifestyle make it a very special place to live, work and play. It may be a fairly small town but it’s bursting with character! Whether you want to go skiing, play a game of golf, go wine tasting at a local vineyard, or perhaps try mountain biking around the lake, Wanaka has something for everyone. The same goes for properties… Maybe you’re a first time buyer? Or perhaps you’re looking for your next home? Whatever you’re thinking, I’m sure our salespeople will be able to locate it for you.

Watch the Wanaka space!

Kind Regards,

WELCOME TO THE SPRING 2015 FIRST NATIONAL WANAKA

There’s a buzz in the air as temperatures rise and the last of the snow melts slowly away from the mountain tops. Skis are put away and as the days lengthen it’s time to pump up the tyres on your bike, check out the engines on your boat and get out your walking shoes to hit one of the tracks and trails around the Lake Wanaka region. Mt Aspiring National Park beckons — a wonderful mixture of remote wilderness, high mountains and beautiful river valleys. It’s a walker’s paradise and a must for mountaineers, hunters and fishermen.

Deciding factors

58% of people felt that local amenities were “very important” or “essential” when making the decision to buy. Commuting time was the second most cited factor, indicating why buying in Auckland city can be so expensive – people want to live close to where they work.

Capital gains were also considered important. This factor was regarded as “essential” by the greatest number of respondents, demonstrating the high number of investment properties being purchased. While suburb name and school zone were considered less important.

When asked to identify the single most important variable when considering buying a property, nearly twice as many people chose “opportunity to add value” than the next most popular “low maintenance”. This is consistent with the investment preference and capital gains.

Home owners felt the most stressful part of the process (as identified by the survey respondents) was the physical move itself, which was marginally ahead of the property search and negotiating a price.

Property ConcernsFor 94% of survey respondents, their greatest concern was property value, followed closely by rates increases and major maintenance expenses. The survey asked what tools would be most helpful. The most useful tools that people sought were related to value. Respondents wanted to understand the changes in value to their own property, as well as having information pertaining to local market trends.

Property Concerns

The survey asked what tools would be most helpful to owners or buyers. Given the increase in house prices throughout much of New Zealand – and particularly in Auckland and Christchurch, the most useful tools that people sought were related to value. Respondents wanted to understand the changes in value to their own property, as well as having information pertaining to local market trends.

Information on how to maximise value as well as a sum insured calculator rated highly.

At the other end of the scale, calculators for mortgages/investments and renovation costs were considered less helpful. This is unsurprising given the range of mortgage repayment calculator and renovation tools currently available online.
