REINZ figures for June 2025 show New Zealand’s median price was steady year-on-year at $770,000, however in New Zealand, excluding Auckland, the June median price increased by 1.7% from June 2024 to reach $691,500.

Auckland’s median price experienced a further decline year-on-year, decreasing by 3.4% to $990,000, slightly down from the May 2025 year on year decline of 3.5%. 

Ten out of the sixteen regions reported an increase in median prices compared to June 2024. The most significant increase was seen on the West Coast, up 35.5% from $310,000 to $420,000. Southland reached a record high in its median price, reaching $502,500. 

While June is typically a quieter month, the number of properties sold in New Zealand in June 2025 increased by 20.3% compared to June 2024 rising from 4,877 to 5,865. Excluding Auckland, the number of sales increased by 21.4%, from 3,371 to 4,091.  At a regional level, Gisborne recorded the highest year-on-year increase, rising 70.0% from 20 to 34 sales. Other regions with notable sales increases included Southland (+34.9%), Bay of Plenty (+33.3%) and Marlborough (+32.7%).

In general, while the seasonal slowdown was expected, sales came in slightly below typical early winter levels. Nationally, seasonally adjusted sales fell by around five per cent, suggesting some caution in the market, but compared to this time last year, sales remain significantly stronger overall according to REINZ.
