Property prices didn’t slow over the holiday period across the ditch, with CoreLogic noting housing values in New Zealand continues to grow off the back of strong spring figures.

For anyone invested in property over the ditch, or is considering migrating their portfolio that way, the property research group has crunched the numbers and found property values rose by 0.9 per cent over the month in its QV December 2019 House Price Index.
