Nathan Najib, founder of Najib Real Estate, has released a new 57 - page house price guide aimed at helping Kiwis better understand the key factors driving the property market and make more informed decisions in an increasingly unaffordable housing environment.
The guide brings together New Zealand housing data, historical market trends, and broader economic context into one practical resource for buyers, sellers, investors, and homeowners. It focuses on five of the key variables that influence house prices in New Zealand: median sale price, buyer demand, housing supply, interest rates, and affordability.
Designed to go beyond a standard market report, the guide also maps major housing and economic shifts against the political leadership of the time. Rather than telling readers what to think, it presents the political and economic backdrop alongside key indicators such as inflation, interest rates, unemployment, affordability, and house prices, allowing readers to draw their own conclusions.
The aim is to give New Zealanders more context around how policy, economic conditions, and market cycles may affect property values over time, particularly as they consider future elections, financial decisions, and long-term property strategy.
“There has been a lot of noise around real estate over the past few years, but not enough clarity,” said Nathan Najib, Managing Director at Najib Real Estate. “I’ve seen many Kiwis buy and sell at the wrong time, and we created this guide to bring the key data into one place, explain it simply, and help everyday New Zealanders better understand what is really driving house prices.”
Najib said the guide is designed to make complex and often scattered market information more accessible to everyday New Zealanders.
“I’ve always been a numbers person, and at Najib Real Estate we focus on transparency,” he said. “We want to talk about what the data actually shows, not just what people want to hear.”
He added that the House Price Guide reflects years of ongoing market commentary and education.
“Over the past few years, I’ve been sharing these insights through our YouTube channel,” he said. “But I wanted to create something more complete — a resource where the key data, the trends, and the broader context all sit in one place. This guide is designed to help Kiwis better understand what is really happening in the market.”
The New Zealand House Price Insights eGuide is now available through Najib Real Estate.
