Seven suburbs, one method
Every figure below comes from REINZ transaction records, worked out the same way for every suburb so the comparison actually holds. Sort by any column.

All seven cover the same twelve months of recorded sales. The core four were recomputed from a REINZ export pulled 18 August 2026; Pakuranga, Howick and Highland Park come from an earlier pull on 12 August 2026, run through the same method. Suburb names link through to what sets the price there.
How these figures were worked out
Every figure starts as a REINZ transaction-level export of actual recorded sales, not portal estimates. Each suburb gets two exports: the most recent twelve months, and the twelve months before it for the year-on-year column. Both go through the same steps.
- Where the same sale appears more than once in an export, those records collapse into one.
- Bare sections come out, because they are land, not homes.
- Records come out where the price is below 55% of the rating valuation, or outside a $400,000 to $8,000,000 band. A $470,000 price against a $1,325,000 valuation is a part-share transfer or a data error, not a house sale.
- The median is taken across everything that remains: houses, units, townhouses, apartments, new and old.
- Days-to-sell is not recorded on every sale, so that median rests only on the ones where it was.
- Auction share counts sales recorded under the auction method, whether they sold on the day or after.
Two cautions worth keeping in front of you. A median describes a suburb, not a house. Farm Cove's 49 sales a year rest on far thinner evidence than Howick's 386, and in a small market a handful of unusual homes moves the figure. And nothing here is an appraisal of any individual property. For that I need to stand in it.
The appraisal promise
A number for
your address
A table cannot price a house. Thirty to forty minutes at your place gets you a price range, the three to five comparable sales it's built on, including the one that hurts, and what the council map shows for your address. Written up and in your inbox the same night, whether you list with me or not.
I take six listings at a time, so if I say yes to your house you get all of me.
