Editorial and insights

Slide 1 of 12
No room for complacency

While optimism is creeping back into the market with improving corporate sentiment and easing interest rates, banks and economists are quietly lowering expectations for property values and GDP growth while keeping a close eye on geopolitical tensions.

New season for the office

The complex interplay of strategic, economic and operational catalysts is driving the corporate office market as occupiers seek to balance growth and innovation with cost control – implementing space that works harder for people, performance and purpose.

Peak opportunity

Snow is not the only thing drawing buyers to property across the world’s premier alpine locations and New Zealand is following suit, with people increasingly coming for the winter and staying for the summer.

Heading in the right direction

With a raft of marco events and geopolitical tensions still it play, the smart money is one step ahead of the economic pendulum, seeing opportunity in commercial and industrial property while others remain in a holding pattern.

Shop through the drop

Big players in the property investment market have led the charge for well-located retail assets, and with economic recovery slowly underway, there’s opportunity across the broader New Zealand retail sector.

Weathering the storm

Commercial property insurance has arguably never been more important and consequently it has never been more expensive. Economic and political upheaval along with increased natural hazards have all fuelled the increase, but relief is in sight.

Market stocktake

The smart money knows where value can be found and Bayleys is fielding high levels of enquiry and sealing deals right around the country.

Private gains

Knight Frank’s 2025 issue of The Wealth Report highlights the increasing presence of private capital in the real estate market across the globe; a trend reflected here in New Zealand.

Northwest winds of change

Auckland’s northwest is maturing as infrastructure initiatives, planning changes, and big investment in new neighbourhoods and commercial and industrial property awaken the region’s sleeping giant.

Winds of change

If you’ve been deep in the rabbit hole of OCR and interest rates trying to pick when the trough will occur, you might be missing the fact that in more ways than one, we’re entering a new real estate season.

Logistical fortitude

Sustainability and automation are high on industrial property wish lists, with long-term sector fundamentals looking positive and ongoing infrastructure developments supporting future expansion.

Southern comfort

Auckland’s southern corridor is fast becoming an in-demand office precinct as the flight to quality evolves into a search for value and business owners place greater emphasis on getting the right bang for their buck.
