Primary sector leads the way

The primary sector is helping to drive the country’s economic recovery and with renewed confidence, strong demand and record sales activity there’s real demand to own a slice of rural New Zealand.

Rural market window is open

The strong surge in farmgate returns, particularly for sheepmeat, beef and dairy, are creating liquidity in the rural real estate market, presenting a timely opportunity for those considering succession planning or expansion options.

Helping hand

Building resilient, supportive and positive rural communities is important to Bayleys, and our people are happy to answer when the call goes out to support local causes – here’s a small taste of how we give back.

Home on the range

Lifestyle property demand is rising as buyers seek space, family-friendly locations, and work-from-home options. Activity is strongest in the Bay of Plenty and Waikato, with faster sales, more offers, and multi-generational living shaping the market.

Rare Waikato fattening opportunity awaits

A Matamata fattening property up for auction with Bayleys is well positioned for graziers and beef operators alike wanting to capitalise on its ideal location, great contour and excellent farm infrastructure.

Bloom and Boom: What to expect from a spring sale

Spring’s arrival usually signals renewed hope for vendors, but 2025 has proven anything but predictable. With an oversupply of listings and buyers behaving cautiously, simply putting up a “For Sale” sign is no longer enough.

Double downturn?

We’ve been hearing for a while that the housing market recovery is on its way, but so far, it’s been a little sluggish. Despite several interest rate cuts, prices aren’t surging ahead — instead, they seem to be tracking sideways with small ups and downs.
