AI summary

An off-market property is sold privately without public advertising, offering buyers a chance to purchase with less competition and stress.

To find these listings, build relationships with local real estate agents and get your finance pre-approved to move quickly. You can also approach homeowners directly or work with a buyer's agent.

While you may get a better price, it's vital to do your due diligence. Research values on Homes.co.nz and engage a lawyer to avoid overpaying.
