Barfoot & Thompson's sales volumes have now been at nine year lows in three of the last four months

The Auckland housing market remains extremely subdued with the region's largest real estate agency reporting the lowest sales volume for the month of June since 2010.

Barfoot & Thompson sold 786 residential properties in June, down 13% on June last year and the lowest number for the month of June since 2010.

The real estate agency's sales have been at nine year lows in three of the last four months.

The decline in listings was even steeper, with the agency receiving 1012 new listings in June, down 16.4% compared to June last year and the lowest number of new listings in the month of June in at least 11 years.

The lower number of new listings helped to keep total inventory levels at a manageable volume, with the agency having 4085 residential properties available for sale at the end of June, the lowest number since August last year and down 4.3% compared to June last year.

While sales volumes were down, prices remained relatively stable. Barfoot's average selling price was $939,945 in June, up $10,953 from $928,992 in May. That's the highest it has been since December last year, but is still down from the record high of $968,570 set in March 2017.

The median selling price was $845,000 in June, down $5,000 from $850,000 in May, and well below the record of $900,000 set in March 2017. The latest figures suggest prices are continuing to fluctuate within a fairly narrow pricing band.

Barfoot & Thompson Managing Director Peter Thompson said properties priced between $1 million and $2 million sold well in June and accounted for 34.6% of total sales, while just 6.4% of sales were for less than $500,000.

"While prices in June remained solid and sales numbers were modest, there were a number of underlying trends that suggest greater activity was building than has been present over the last few months," he said.

"There are more first time buyers looking, there is a shortage of properties in the $800,000 to $1 million price segment resulting in competition for properties, vendors are more inclined to meet the market and banks are showing more interest in lending.

"All are positive signs for vendors who are prepared to price their properties at market," he said.

David, your basing your percentage dropouts against stock , not flow. Given the low level of sales, drop outs on a flow basis are significant , and when compared with last years same six month period have increased in percentage terms.

Up
0

That "drop out" rate should be calculated based on the last 12 months ("LTM") and yes, on "flow" (i.e. listings) not stock.

You're not going to have the same property listed and dropping out in the same month so it's a bit meaningless to look at individual months.
LTM also normalises for seasonality.

I've been tracking that statistic on an LTM basis since January 2016.
The LTM drop out stat for June 2019 is 44.0% (15,809 B&T listings and 6,951 'drop-outs' in the 12 months to June).
That is high within the range I have.

The time series I have started at 32.8% in January 2016;
Hit a low of 31.5% in December 2016;
Climbed steeply to a high of 48.3% in February 2018; and
Has stayed around / just below that level since - now at 44.0% per above.

I'd love to have a longer time series to know what a 'normal' level is for this stat, I think it could be a real indicator.
My interpretation is that the higher the "drop out" rate the greater the expectation gap is between vendors and the market.
The market will only return to equilibrium when that rate settles closer to longer term "norms" - but I'm not sure what that "norm" is.

Edit: Checked all my data against David's and noticed I had incorrect listing figure for September 2018 (very minor - 7 listings)

Another way of looking at the withdrawal rate. The figures used are the same.
Listings start of January 4194 end of June 4085 difference 109.
New listings Jan 1st to June 30th - 6319
Sales Jan 1st to June 30th - 4361

Total New Listings 6319 + 109 (difference between starting and finish stock) = 6428
Sales / Total Listings over period. = 4361/6428 = 67.8% success rate so far in 2019.

So 32.2% of Barfoots Listings have been withdrawn. This is how any manager in RE industry should be calculating the Instructions to Sales Ratio.

June volumes are 1/3 down on where they were at the peak of the frenzy.
786 sales in June 2019, compared to
903 in June 2018

And Low New Listings are a classic symptom of where people can't afford to sell or don't want to sell for less than they paid. To give you an example consider Auckland.
Approximately 500,000 rooftops,
2015 - 30,883 sales
2016 - 25,987 sales
2017 - 20,172 sales
2018 - 21,447 sales

That’s 98,489 sales over a 4 year period. Or nearly 20% of the total stock where owners, if they wanted to sell would be selling for less than (2016,2017,2018 purchases) or equal to (2015 purchases). Either way the likelihood is that after transaction costs to sell most won’t have enough equity to trade. Unless circumstances force a sale, these people are stuck, either through not wanting to sell at a loss, or just being stuck by their equity position. Generally very little is paid off the capital in the first 5-10 years so reality is that volumes of sales are going to be low for a very long time ahead and this is going to have an effect on credit growth at some point in the near future.

I'm missing something here. Do we know when these sellers purchased, their equity position and thus ability to trade up? Perhaps you explained elsewhere?

It doesn’t in NZ at the moment I don’t think. The Sydney situation is getting interesting though. There’s a glut, developers are getting desperate, the market has declined -15% average, and poor quality building is being revealed (see Opal and Mascot Towers etc). Buyers are becoming wary and prices are dropping. Now is not a great time, but when things bottom out there’ll no doubt be some real bargains for good quality long term, and immigration is solid there. Odds are Auckland will go through similar.

"Selling well" is not the same as "selling at a high price". You could say that my ex-landlords house was "selling well" because they managed to sell it. Mind you, they sold it for $1.19 million. RV $1.7 million.

What % of AKL properties have CVs above $2 million? Is 1-2m really the top end?

Up
0

You are quite right, it is not. In the first 5m of 2019 sales above $2m were 5.3% of sales of residential property in Auckland.
In 2017, same period it was 10%.
Sales above $2m in 5m of 2017 were 615.
In 5m of 2019 it was 398.
So, 40% drop.
between 1.5m and 2m the drop in the 2 years concerned, is 25%
between 800-1m only 1.2% drop.
No point in comparing to 2018 only, because 2018 were front-running cadges in shape of OBB and AML
2017 was a bad year so if 2019 is worse, you know it is bad and worse.

Hi Yvil,

what I in fact said was that she reported to me what had happened at an Orewa auction house 3 weeks ago, when there were no bids for a house with a reserve in region of $1.2m. Sales of Orewa houses and townhouses (fact, from REINZ figures) in May were 69% lower than in 2018. Sales of property in Auckland, in the $2m plus bracket, are down 42% on first 5m of this year, compared to 2018. This is not opinion It is fact. Above $2m is not cited by Barfoots note. When looking at media outlets with vested interest in "confidence " it is as well to look at what is NOT said, or cited, and then ask oneself why that is. it is called selective editing. The bracket which is dropping least is that between $600-800k (about 7% in same 5m period) The higher the price bracket, the greater the % fall in sales. Nice to get a citation form you. Shame about the accuracy

Median selling Price is not actually a true indicator as now many who were early trying to buy for $700000 are streching to high 700s and so on as are getting much more value for their $$$$$$$ - Also supported by low interst rate.

Best time to buy is in high 800s to 900s as are getting houses that would have earlier sold for million plus. Also many who bought from 2016 onwards are unable to sell without a lose (mostly) so all those who have holding capicity will hold for few years and if have no deep pockets are and should be ready to book a lose (minimize the lose) as in future may bleed, if are unable to hold for few years.

Read the market as now no amount of manipulation will help and anyone who thinks that the market is not bad or is going to go up is fooling oneselves.

Shortage? Between $800-1m? Precisely what Rodney builders have been churning out for last 6 years running.
He is right that this is category performing least badly in sales terms, along with 3 beds between $600-800k.
But, sorry, sales over $2m (not referred to by Mr Thompson) in Auckland are down over 45% in last 5m, compared to 2018. Listings are also misleading because they include A LOT of duplicate listings. In Hibiscus Coast for example, duplication is 80 out of 525 houses and townhouses, with a further 25% of these listings under that category in FACT being house and land packages - ie no house on it for sale yet at all. That is, 25% are awaiting development into a usable house. So, available for living in is a totally different and much lower figure. Sections and apartment sales are over 25% down in Auckland year on year, despite the fact that they are building loads of apartments. Why? Price , yes, but mostly because who likes apartments? Foreign buyers and they cannot buy now. Auckland is returning to the norm (reverting) which is approximately the level of 2012.

Up
0

I'd say price is the biggest issue with apartments. It's just completely insane that a 2 bedroom apartment costs $700-800k, and you can't get a decent 3 bedroom apartment under $800k. People in Europe buy apartments because they are much more affordable than houses. In New Zealand, they cost pretty much the same.

It will be interesting to watch what happens to the regions that were popular with local Investors when they were pushed out of Auckland by high LVR rates. I wonder how quickly Hamilton, Tauranga and Queenstown will return to normal price value levels, at least they seem to have come off the boil.

While sales volumes were down, prices remained relatively stable. Barfoot's average selling price was $939,945 in June, up $10,953 from $928,992 in May. That's the highest it has been since December last year, but is still down from the record high of $968,570 set in March 2017.

Yeah, that isn't prices remaining stable, that is the amount spent staying stable. Price is determined by what you got for your spending. And HPI is the best measure of that.

Up

Since the peak in late 2016/early 2017 the Auckland HPI looks quite stable to me, relatively speaking. Just looking at the graph it seems to have hung within a band of about 200 points.

Up

It was for a while, but recently started to drop was -4.4%Yoy, then recovered slight to -3.3%Yoy. We'll find out where it went this month in a couple of weeks. My prediction is it'll be back to about -4.5% again.

Up
0

Just out of interest - is the HPI inflation adjusted or not?

I don't think that it is.

For example, CPI (inflation) for the last year has been 1.9% yoy. If the HPI is not adjusted for inflation, then if the HPI is -4.4% yoy, then on an inflation adjusted basis, that would mean HPI is -6.3% yoy - so in inflation adjusted terms (i.e in economist's jargon "real returns") are -6.3% yoy.

Recall in the mid to late 1970's, nominal house prices (i.e unadjusted for inflation) were still rising, whilst the reason that "real returns" were negative was due to the high inflation rate which more than offset the nominal house price rise.

Then you add the impact of leverage used to finance house purchases, and the inflation adjusted returns on the equity value is even more negative.

Up
0

it's a good question. a quick bit of googling suggests "no", but i suspect someone here knows more about the methodology.

Up

"Just out of interest - is the HPI inflation adjusted or not?"
Yes it is not inflation adjusted. I am just wondering is the NZX50 gross index inflation adjusted? Also does it count dividends twice, when they are paid out and when they are grossed back in the index? If it does, would that show a higher share market value than normal which could potentially mislead novice investors and Kiwisavers??

Up
0

The NZX50 is a simple cap weighted index, no adj for inflation. It's a rough measure as this type of index is also changed when the constituent stocks are rejigged.

HPIs aren't usually inflation adjusted either ~ as far as I am aware. Happy to be corrected on this though.

Up
0

To take the example further for a leveraged house owner using a LVR of 80%, where the HPI has fallen 4.4% yoy:

1) in nominal price terms - the value of their equity has fall 23.0%
2) in inflation adjusted price terms, the value of their equity has fallen 24.4%

So in the span of 12 months, that equity value now has purchasing power of 75.6% of the amount it could purchase a year ago.

Compare that to the situation that if instead, the house purchaser had waited for a lower house purchase price, and put the equity deposit into the bank for the time being, the purchasing power would be about 100% of that of a year ago (as the interest from the bank offsets the increase in prices due to inflation)

It’s funny, they say there is a shortage of capital at the reduced rate of return but I see the OCR might go to 1%. If there was a surplus of better investment options I’m thinking the OCR would not be going down. So I’m picking their investors won’t have any better options for their equity.

Property investment is still by far the safest and best returning investment available!
With interest rates so low and will remain low, there are plenty of opportunities to invest with positive returns and capital gains assured in many parts of NZ, Christchurch being my choice due to many reasons!
If you are currently renting and can afford to buy a property, I would be encouraging it!
Reality is that if the Reserve Bank demands that Banks hold more cash then if you are a marginal borrower, in the future you may not be approved for finance!
Seasoned investors will have good equity and will be taking advantage of the negativity that many talk too often!
If people took advice from the property bears on this site, they would be financially disadvantaged by hundreds of thousand and even millions!

This low volume of sales despite the major players (ANZ,BNZ,Westpac, ASB) negotiating cheap mortgage rates in the 3.5% to 3.79% range fixed for 1 or 2 years - well below carded rates! It is no surprise that people are withdrawing homes off the market and refinancing at such low rates.
Any areas that previously had rampant offshore buyer activity and strong migrant flows like Albany and other areas of the North Shore are suffering as are the investor districts like Massey, Mangere, Manukau etc.

Titirangi, Kaurilands, Laingholm, Parau, Cornwallis; all commutable with close train connections at Glen Eden, good primary schools. Popular with those use to commuting for 40 mins such as Europeans, very low crime rate. Prices are balancing out.
Oritia, Glen Eden bit more suburban. Piha, Waitakere, Waiatarua is a bit far for a commute, though friends of mine who are in to surfing say it worth it for that better quality of life.

Also younger Kiwis are starting to realize that they need to commute if they want a nice home with a garden.

Another loophole for property speculation is closed. Government has ended negative gearing. The law was passed last week. Now, speculators can not offset their property losses from income elsewhere.

Why is everyone getting so stressed about the devaluation of residential property market? There are other property markets besides housing. The commercial market is booming with net yields ranging from 4-8% after all expenses are paid. For the same money as a house or apartment you can buy a shop, office or factory. No bright line test, no foreign buyer ban, no tenancy tribunal, no warm and dry bleeding heart stuff, no bond limitations, no political interference, and tenants pay all outgoings. How much better can it get than that? There is a huge demand for commercial space in all the main centres, so vacancies are rare.
