Is it a good time to sell?

“It's always a good time to sell.”  That’s something you’ll often hear in real estate. But the reality? The market is far more nuanced than that.

At Weka, we believe informed decisions start with honest conversations and real data — not market hype, “fake news,” or commentary designed to create unrealistic expectations.

In a market where sellers are constantly wondering who they can trust, transparency matters more than ever.  Our advice focuses on what's best for our clients - and sometimes that may be giving advice that, if possible, "hold" may be a better option.

Right now in Queenstown, the story isn’t one-size-fits-all.

Some suburbs are still achieving exceptional results. Others are facing tougher conditions, with some properties selling below RV while others exceed expectations. The difference between a strong outcome and a disappointing one often comes down to understanding your local market and timing your strategy accordingly.

Knowledge is power in any market — especially this one.

We recently reviewed the last 12 months of sales in Jacks Point (excluding Hanley’s Farm). From 50 analysed sales — after removing non-market transactions and sales without publicly available prices — 24 properties (48%) sold at or below RV.

That means only 52% sold above the September 2024 RVs.

If you’re thinking about selling, make sure your decisions are guided by honest, professional advice backed by real data.
