North Shore market
A flurry of listings leading up to the end of the financial year created good activity across Bayleys North Shore’s three residential offices with Hayden Stanaway, branch manager of the Takapuna office and associate of Stanaway Real Estate, announcing that in March, the group had it’s ‘biggest month ever’.
“This is a great reflection of the hard work our team put into sourcing, marketing and then negotiating the sale of properties across the North Shore. It is also evidence of the fact that people are once again making timely decisions around property; purchasers are no longer sitting on their hands and vendors are showing real commitment.”
It is interesting to note that in the last quarter of the financial year, 35% of all buyers of Bayleys North Shore property listings were from other parts of New Zealand and in the main, from Auckland city pointing to the Shore becoming a real growth area in the Supercity scheme of things.
“We have always proudly promoted the great lifestyle, recreational, educational and housing opportunities that the North Shore has to offer and it seems that people in other parts of Auckland are starting to wake up to this, too,” says Hayden.
“There’s plenty of scope for good buying and a well-rounded way of life on our side of the Harbour Bridge!”
Local people moving within the North Shore accounted for 47% of Bayleys North Shore’s sales, while 18% of transactions were concluded with international buyers.
