With New Zealand's property market warming up, sellers should not get complacent. The October 2024 Property Price Index shows faster sales, but strong marketing and presentation like home staging are still crucial.

Price your home smartly to avoid deterring buyers, using tools like Property Insights for guidance. Consider buying your next home before selling. An auction is an effective sales method in this climate, creating competition and quick, unconditional sales. Flexibility with viewings and negotiations is also key.

1. Don’t skimp on marketing and presentation

You still need to present your home in its best light.

2. Price smart

3. Buy first and sell second

Buying before you sell will make the process smoother.

4. Think carefully about your sales method

5. Be as flexible without crossing your red lines
