Grab A Bach: Sales In NZ's Coastal Towns and Suburbs

OneRoof and its data partner Valocity examined the state of New Zealand's bach market. Analysis covered the five years to the end of June 2022, and included non urban centres with more than 100 residential properties within 800 metres of the coast line. The total number of settled sales in the 251 locations covered in the analysis over the five-year period was 35,356. Of those, 45% (15,997) were "second home" purchases - ie purchases that took the owner into the multi-homeowner category.
