NZ Property Market Just Changed – Here’s What You Need to Know
The New Zealand housing market has officially entered a new phase — and most Kiwis have no idea what’s coming.
In this no-fluff, data-backed briefing, Andrew Malcolm from mortgagehq tears the curtain off what’s really going on in the NZ property market this May. If you're relying on headlines, you're already too late. This update reveals the real signals the media isn’t talking about — the ones that matter for your money, your home, and your next move.
🔍 What You’ll Learn (That No One Else Will Tell You):
Why the “slowdown” narrative is misleading... and what’s actually driving price shifts
The hidden data from auctions, inventory, and buyer pipelines that signal what’s next
What the Reserve Bank isn’t saying — and how it affects your mortgage strategy
How investors are quietly re-entering... and why most buyers will miss the window
Which regions are becoming buyer traps — and which are becoming undervalued goldmines
How to use this shift to leverage equity, stack properties, or time your first home purchase like a sniper
💥 This Isn’t an Update. It’s an Edge.
You don’t need noise. You need clarity. That’s why this video breaks it down like no one else — cutting through spin, fear, and hype to give you the actionable insights that build wealth, protect your downside, and upgrade your strategy.
Whether you’re:
Sitting on equity and unsure what to do next
Trying to break into the market without getting burned
Looking to read the room before your next move
Or just sick of hearing conflicting takes...
