NZ house price predictions from economists (2025)
Are we in for another property boom?
AI summary
Leading economists predict a rise in NZ house prices for 2025, though the market faces mixed signals.
Forecasts range from 6% (Kiwibank, ANZ) to 10.9% (ASB), with the Reserve Bank at 7%. CoreLogic anticipates a slow, steady increase rather than a boom. Key drivers include falling interest rates and population growth, but a weak economy and stretched affordability are notable headwinds.
Remember these are national averages and local market performance will vary.
