π‘ Let's talk facts, not rumours.
There has been plenty of discussion about the New Plymouth property market lately, but what do the numbers actually tell us?
π The median sale price in the New Plymouth District has remained remarkably stable throughout 2026:
β’ January: $759,000
β’ February: $700,000
β’ March: $675,000
β’ April: $670,000
β’ May: $670,000
That's not a market in decline; that's a market finding its balance.
Looking at sales numbers:
β’ January: 75 sales
β’ February: 102 sales
β’ March: 110 sales
β’ April: 140 sales
β’ May: 110 sales
April was the strongest month of the year, with 140 properties sold, while May still delivered a healthy 110 sales despite moving into the cooler winter months.
What does this mean?
β
Buyers are still buying.
β
Sellers are still selling.
β
