Why the world's searching for NZ property
Friday, 01 July 2016
Brexit and US presidential candidate Donald Trump have are believed to have triggered a surge in searches of New Zealand property listings from Britain and America.
Brendon Skipper, realestate.co.nz chief executive, said that the listings website had noticed an increase in traffic lately, so it analysed data over specific periods of time to try to ascertain reasons.
According to data from the site, the week leading up to Brexit and following - June 16 to June 29 - saw a jump in new users from the United Kingdom of 27.47 per cent, versus the same period before - June 2 to June 15.
"They were largely looking in Auckland City, North Shore city, Wellington City and Rodney," said the listings site. Similiarly, a big rise in US traffic tracked Trump's rise.
"Using February 1 to June 29 (roughly when primaries started ramping up) saw a jump in new users from the US of 21.4 per cent when compared to the same time in 2015."
