Overall, August points to a relatively steady market, with some positive signs emerging as spring gets underway.

According to the latest REINZ figures, the median sale price was $1,200,000, easing just 0.8% from the previous month, while sitting 13.2% higher than August 2025 and 0.8% above three years ago.

Seven properties sold during August, while the median days to sell reduced to 64 days. For Waiheke’s smaller market, monthly figures can naturally fluctuate depending on the mix of properties sold, but the improvement in selling time is an encouraging shift as we head into spring.

For owners considering selling, spring traditionally brings renewed interest to the island.

With the warmer months ahead, properties can really showcase the lifestyle, outdoor spaces and surroundings that make Waiheke so appealing.

For buyers, it remains a market where taking a considered approach can uncover opportunities across the island.

Waiheke's median sale price recorded a positive lift in July as we move closer to spring.

According to the latest REINZ data, Waiheke recorded a median sale price of $1,210,000 for July, approximately 27% higher than June and 13% higher than July last year.

While these figures are encouraging, monthly median prices on Waiheke can fluctuate due to the relatively small number and mix of properties sold in any given month. The July result should therefore be viewed as a snapshot of sales activity rather than an indication that individual property values have increased by the same percentage.

As we approach spring, listing ahead of the traditional peak may help your property stand out before more stock comes to market. Timing matters, so if you're considering a move, let's talk about the right strategy for your Waiheke property.

Real estate isn't just about matching buyers with properties.

It's about understanding what makes each property unique and communicating that value to the right buyer.

On Waiheke, every property has its own characteristics. Sun orientation, topography, access, zoning, native bush, views, infrastructure, water supply, wastewater systems, building history, future potential and local planning considerations can all influence a property's appeal and value.

For our sellers, that means marketing a property with confidence and accuracy.

For our buyers, it means helping them make informed decisions with a clear understanding of what they're purchasing.

Local knowledge helps us ask the right questions, highlight the details that matter, and provide informed advice throughout the selling and buying process.

Waiheke isn't just about beautiful homes or breathtaking views…

It's the morning swim before work, coffee in the village, evenings that end with sunsets instead of traffic. Weekends that feel like a holiday, without ever leaving home.

It's a lifestyle that encourages you to slow down, connect with nature, and spend more time doing what matters most.

Because when you choose to call Waiheke home, you're choosing so much more than an address.

You're choosing a way of life.

If you're thinking about making Waiheke your home, we'd love to help you discover what makes this island so special.

The Waiheke property market continues to present opportunities for both buyers and sellers as we move through winter, with conditions favouring those who are well prepared and ready to act.

According to the latest REINZ data, the median sale price for June was $950,000, down 3.1% from May, while remaining 1.3% higher than June last year. Compared with three years ago, the median price is 21.0% lower, reflecting a market that has settled into more balanced conditions.

Quality Over Quantity
A total of 10 properties sold during June, with buyers continuing to take a considered approach to securing the right property. Well-presented homes, priced in line with current market conditions, continue to attract genuine interest, demonstrating that quality listings are still achieving results.

What This Means for Waiheke
Winter can offer an often-overlooked advantage for sellers. With fewer properties coming to market, there is less competition for buyer attention, allowing well-marketed homes to stand out. Combined with the settled weather we’ve been enjoying and motivated buyers looking to make their next move, it may be an opportune time to launch your property ahead of the traditional spring market.

If you’re considering buying or selling and would like to discuss what the current market means for your property, we’re here to help.

The best conversations usually start with great coffee. ☕
Just downstairs from our office in Ostend is one of our favourite local spots, Take A Bite Café.

Sun-soaked, welcoming and effortlessly stylish, it’s run by the lovely Mathias and Kim, who serve what we think is some of the best coffee on Waiheke, alongside artisan food that makes the cabinet very hard to resist.

Whether we’re catching up with clients over coffee or bringing a fresh brew upstairs for a more private meeting, it’s all part of creating a relaxed, local experience that is authentically Waiheke.

Thinking about buying, selling or simply curious about the market? We’d love to shout you a coffee. Meet us downstairs at Take A Bite or upstairs in the office.

Local, easy and very Waiheke.
