AI summary
A recent Trade Me survey reveals most Kiwi home buyers (38%) search across 2-3 suburbs, while only 11% focus on a single area. Buyers are evenly split between searching a tight local area and clusters within a city.
Suburbs are often removed from shortlists due to price or safety concerns. Auckland dominates national searches, with Mount Eden and Remuera being the most popular. Outside of Auckland, Christchurch suburbs like Merivale and Cashmere show strong demand, highlighting key regional trends.
