🕰️ Stephen asks David “What would you tell your 16-year-old self?”

And without hesitation, David answers with:
“Don’t stress about figuring it all out. Just ask—what do I want to try for the next 2 years?”

💡 Real estate ended up being his path, but the pressure to decide “forever” almost got in the way.

A great reminder for young professionals or anyone at a career crossroads.

📊 What’s really happening in the property market?
David Palfreyman breaks it down after chatting with CoreLogic’s Head of Research:

👉 85,000 property transactions in NZ over the past 12 months
👉 Forecast to rise to 92,000 in the year ahead
👉 But the long-term average? 95,000

💡 That means we’re still in oversupply - a classic buyer’s market.
If you're thinking about buying, now might be your window.

🔑🔑 Why use auctions when the market is quiet? Because they force serious buyers to show up and make decisions.

In our recent episode on Property Matters, David shares how auctions create:
🔹Transparency for sellers
🔹Time-bound urgency for buyers
🔹The best chance at maximising price in today’s climate

🏠🏠 Buyer’s vs seller’s market — how to tell the difference?

Look at months of inventory:
Under 4 months = Seller’s Market
Over 6 months = Buyer’s Market
4–6 months = Balanced Market

David says most areas today fall into buyer’s market territory - great time to purchase if you’re prepared.
