New data suggests the ‘forever home’ may be a thing of the past, with the ‘seven-year itch’ now closer to five.

The concept of the ‘forever home’ appears to be fading in NZ, with new data from realestate.co.nz revealing that Kiwis now hold onto their homes for an average of just five and a half years before selling.
"People move for many reasons—employment opportunities, the desire for more space, the need to accommodate aging parents, or even downsizing after the kids have left. This frequent movement is likely a reflection of changing lifestyle needs and opportunities across NZ,” says Vanessa Williams, realestate.co.nz spokesperson.
The regions where property moved more quickly than the national average were Waikato, Nelson and Bays, and Bay of Plenty, where the average time between sales was five years and four months.
But what about the financial gains? Does it pay to stay, or should you go?
“Holding for longer can sometimes mean bigger gains, but many factors can impact this, including market conditions, economic factors, legislative changes, your region, and demand in your area," says Williams.
Ultimately, you should buy based on your personal circumstances, rather than trying to predict what the market might do.

In fact, did you know that having too many scents in your home can actually be overwhelming for buyers? That's why it's important to choose a specific scent that is carefully considered.
While baking cookies or brewing coffee may seem like a great idea to create a cosy atmosphere, it might not be the best choice when your home is being shown. 🍪☕️
Instead, experts suggest using baking soda to diffuse odours, or even using a citrus scent to make your kitchen more inviting. 🍋
But don't worry if citrus isn't your thing! You can always choose a simple, clean scent or even skip adding scent altogether if your home has no unpleasant odours.
The key is to keep it simple and let your home's natural beauty shine through.
Good luck with your home selling journey! 💫
