Are we in for another property boom?
AI summary
Leading New Zealand economists predict house prices will rise in 2025. Forecasts vary, with most expecting moderate growth:
- Kiwibank & ANZ: 6% increase
- Reserve Bank: ~7% increase
- ASB: 10.9% increase
- CoreLogic: Slow, steady growth
Key drivers include falling interest rates, population growth, and the return of investors. However, stretched affordability and a weaker economy create headwinds. These are uncertain national averages, and regional performance will differ significantly.
