Demand index 0.822 vs supply index 0.426 (DSR proxy 51.8; lower is tighter). 50 is theoretical balance.
Tighter demand/supply (higher score) precedes capital growth; below 40 signals oversupply.
NZ investor yield floor; below ~2.5% gross is a low-yield/high-price trap.
Sustained recent growth confirms the market is trending, not stalling.
Fast median days-to-sell shows demand is clearing stock; >55 days is a buyer's market.
High building consents vs existing stock floods future supply and caps growth.
Buyer search intensity is a leading demand pulse.
Lower price-to-income leaves headroom for owner-occupier-driven growth.
Local incomes rising faster than the regional average pull buyer budgets (and prices) up; falling behind the region is a structural drag.
Committed government infrastructure (transport, health, education) seeds jobs, access and amenity that precede sustained price growth.
A diversified local economy creates resilient, varied job opportunities; single-industry towns carry concentration risk that caps demand.
