In this episode, we discuss how Andrew managed to negotiate a massive $116,000 discount off a property.

We also share how much you can realistically shave off a purchase price in today’s market.

We break down:

  • The actual data on how much buyers are negotiating off properties in Auckland, Wellington, and Christchurch

  • The discounts you can get off New Builds and existing properties

  • And the tactics you can use to get a better deal — even if the market feels tight.

You’ll also hear how Opes investors are getting up to $51,000 off the market value (according to registered valuations) — and why the best negotiators are always willing to walk away.
