There was a substantial jump in activity at the latest auctions, with interest.co.nz monitoring 530 residential property auctions over the week of 15-21 November.
That was up from 436 the previous week and 466 the week before that.
Anything over 500 a week suggests the market is in peak selling mode, so the summer rush certainly seems to have arrived in the auction rooms over the last week.
Of the 530 properties on offer, 224 sold under the hammer, giving an overall sales rate of 42%, compared with 40% the previous week.
Of the 224 that sold, 61% achieved prices that were above or equal to their corresponding rating valuation.
So we are seeing more activity, with more properties coming to market and more selling, but no significant movement in the sales rate or prices.
Details of the individual properties offered at all of the auctions monitored by interest.co.nz, including the selling prices of those that sold, are available on our Residential Auction Results page.
