Barfoot & Thompson Director Kiri Barfoot comments on the Auckland Housing Market in September:

"Auckland Housing Market adjusts to economic conditions
While Auckland property sales adjust to current economic conditions, buyers in September focused their attention on property that is selling for under $1 million.

There was a significant shift in the price bracket where sales were made in September. 46 percent of our sales in the month were properties priced at under $1 million. Overall, in September buyers remained cautious, with sales numbers up 6.2 percent on those for August but down 7.8 percent on those for September last year.

The median price for the month at $1,064,000 fell away by 4.2 percent on that for August and was the lowest it has been in any month for 16 months. New listings for the month at 1301 were solid, and 2.5 percent higher than we have averaged across the previous 3 months.

Interest in rural and lifestyle property remained positive in September but activity was quiet as buyers and vendors sought common ground on prices. On property sold, the average sales price was $1.6 million, up 8.8 percent on that for August".

ANOTHER HOME SOLD BY PETER & JULIA!

Total Do Up with Character
5 Luke St, Otahuhu

Legend has it this quaint Otahuhu cottage holds the record for being the oldest standing one in the suburb; and it's held up remarkably well against the tests of time since being built in the late 19th century. The opportunity has now arrived for new owners seeking a great refurb project to get stuck in adding a little bit of TLC & creativity.

North facing, this cosy home is around 112 m2 in floor area, with 3 bedrooms, separate lounge, laundry, combined bathroom and open plan kitchen/dining. Mains gas running along the street is used for hot water and is easy enough to connect to if that's your cooking preference. Options are yours out the back where there is an existing carport, or turn it into a patio/pergola area with space to grow your own veges and room for the kids to play. There is plenty of additional off-street parking also alongside the house. To top it all off - the property sits on a half site on Business Mixed Use Zoning (providing even more options for you!).

Brilliant location, 5 mins drive to Otahuhu train station and walking distance to the town centre, main bus/transport hub, leisure centre, pool & library. Very handy to motorway on/off ramps heading north & south, a few mins drive to Sylvia Park Shopping Centre and under 15 km to the Auckland CBD.

Renovators, investors, home buyers - bring your paint brush & ladders, seize this opportunity to make this affordable and rare gem your own.

Vendors instructions are clear - property must be sold!
