Will New Zealand’s economy really outperform Australia over the next few years? And what does this mean for property investors and first-home buyers?

In this episode, Paul from Property Apprentice breaks down:
Why Westpac expects NZ to outpace Australia economically
How OCR cuts and affordability improvements are creating a unique buying window
Why Sydney’s $1.7M median price makes NZ property look affordable
What the next 6–12 months could mean for buyers, investors, and upgraders
Why NOW is the time to plan before the market heats up again

The Reserve Bank of New Zealand has already dropped the OCR by 250 basis points, with more cuts likely before year-end. Meanwhile, housing affordability has improved significantly—from 57% to 44% of median household income. But this window won’t last as demand from buyers and investors picks up.

If you’ve been waiting to make a move in property, now is the time to get advice and prepare.
