S3.E5 - Construction costs up, first home buyers down

Send us a question/idea/opinion direct via text message!

First up this week is a recap of the Cordell Construction Costs Index (CCCI) for Q4 which was released last week and got a LOT of press. 

Then we review the January CoreLogic Buyer Classification data showing the first real signs of tightening credit (LVRs and CCCFA) hitting first home buyer activity.

Plenty to look out for this week too, including the CoreLogic Affordability report, Stats NZ's Rental Index for January and the REINZ data release. And as always this week's '5 things you need to know' is up on oneroof.co.nz.

Lastly, a big thanks to Anna for getting in touch about her recent experiences in the Point Chevalier property market - plenty of broader trends to look out for as we transition away from the latest boom phase.
