    New Zealand's housing market looks like it could be on a different trajectory to Australia

    New Zealand's housing market looks like it could be on a different trajectory to Australia

    29 January 2026
    Cotality's Decoding 2026 Report shows almost three quarters of local respondents expect house prices to rise this year.

    Canterbury is the most confident region - with that figure reaching 87-percent.

    Cotality NZ Research Head Nick Goodall says Australia is performing better - but its growth is expected to slow.

    He says their trend is going to be different to ours - and things should even out in 2026.
