In a competitive early 2025 property market, Trade Me Property's Gavin Lloyd notes that while listings are increasing, properties are taking longer to sell and price growth is modest. This creates a gap between vendor expectations and what buyers are willing to pay.

Agent trainer Josh Phegan advises sellers to leverage their agent's expertise. Smart agents can find buyers from past sales and use targeted marketing for different groups like investors or first-home buyers. Staying informed is crucial.
