The Property Recovery No One's Talking About [Winners & Losers Revealed]⎟Ep. 2332
House prices are still 15.7% below their 2021 peak. But that national number is hiding a much bigger story — because some areas have already fully recovered, while others are still falling.
In this episode, Ed and Andrew reveal which parts of New Zealand are the winners and losers of the property recovery. Queenstown-Lakes is now 11% above its peak. Southland is up 8%. Meanwhile, Lower Hutt has been falling for over four years and is down 31% — and it still hasn't bottomed out.
You'll learn:
-The 5 areas that have already passed their 2021 peaks
-Why Wellington and Auckland are dragging down the national numbers
-The maths trick that makes recoveries look smaller than they are
-What this means if you're thinking about buying in a specific area
The "national house price" hides more than it reveals. This episode shows you what's really going on — region by region.
