Tauranga’s housing market activity has slowed in 2017. An average house price is still a healthy $705,000. Even though sale volumes have dropped, home prices continue to rise. The average value has been pushed up because of increasing demand for $1 million+ homes and less transactions in low-end properties.
The lower price bracket often favoured by investors is impacted by LVR restrictions, banks tightening lending standards, and slightly higher interest rates.
