Chch biggest home builder has just put a development project up for sale.  It was supposed to be 61 townhouses, and they had been selling them OTP but obviously have not had enough presales, or are able to get financing for the build without them.  There are not many sites like this in Chch, and this is a primo location.  Times are clearly tough, even in Chch's booming market.  It was purchased for $12M in 2021, will be interesting to see how much it sells for now.

Buddle Findley predicts a post election property boom:

They expect the biggest impact on build to rent and commercial. Might be a good time to hold some of these REITS like KPG or ARG :)

Though they have not yet allowed interest on buildings in the P&L as the NAT cabinet is full of lawyers and they dont as a whole know their accounting theory... except barristers with double degrees and they do exist.

which means they may not return to previous highs may be ARG get to 1.20 if they cant increase the DIV as NTA will have to come down if they keep playing with numbers.

Laywers dont believe in transaction models being anything other than thin AIR with a value denoted in currency back by something they can write down on paper....

and that is why bitcoin is still here becuase transactions on blockchain dont need lawyers to validate them,

•   Yesterday's REINZ data for April continues to point to a tepid recovery in housing, with the 3rd YoY increase in median prices following 19 months of negative prints. Lead indicators are generally positive, although high inventories and low affordability should cap upside over the balance of the year. With sector valuations still close to decade lows, even a modest recovery in the housing market should support the RV sector outperforming in 2024. Nationwide prices +1% YoY to $790k, driven by AKL +6% to $1,050k and NZ ex-AKL flat at $700k. Prices were down -1% across NZ month on month. HPI, which adjusts for changes in mix was also down -1% MoM nationwide. When seasonally adjusted for the usual April tailwinds this was down -2% MoM. Nationwide house prices are now down -15% from Nov-21 peak. Days to sell down -3 days YoY to 43 which is a key lead indicator for sales volumes. Sales up 25% YoY to 5.6k nationwide which is a key lead indicator for prices. Stock levels continue to rise, up 2% MoM and 18% YoY to 33.8k.

Well, aren't these the people who asked for new funds with a history of parading luxury cars and clothing and not returning funds to their holders??

Anybody reading stocktalk in time would have refrained from investing ...

but even without this background info did it always appear to me as one of the best predictable company failures in decades :);
