市场概览

New Zealand's economy is recovering from a shallow recession in 2023-2024, supported by RBNZ interest rate cuts and record net migration. GDP growth is expected to return to 2-3% in 2025-2026. The housing market is recovering from a 15-20% correction (2022-2023) with prices stabilising and beginning to grow in most regions. The construction sector remains active with strong building consent numbers. Key risks include global economic uncertainty, China trade dependency, and inflation persistence.

Overseas Investment Act 2018

有限制

The Overseas Investment Act 2018 restricts overseas persons from purchasing most residential property in New Zealand.

  • Overseas persons (non-citizens, non-residents) are generally prohibited from purchasing existing residential property
  • Exemption exists for new-build apartments and developments (must increase NZ housing stock)
  • OIO (Overseas Investment Office) consent may be obtained for sensitive land purchases
  • NZ citizens and permanent residents face no restrictions
  • Australian and Singaporean citizens have some preferential treatment under trade agreements
  • Trusts and companies with overseas controllers are subject to the same restrictions

RBNZ LVR Restrictions

有限制

The RBNZ imposes Loan-to-Value Ratio restrictions that limit the amount banks can lend relative to property value.

  • Owner-occupied: Maximum 80% LVR (minimum 20% deposit)
  • Investment properties: Maximum 65% LVR (minimum 35% deposit)
  • DTI (Debt-to-Income) limits also apply from 2024
  • Some banks may impose stricter internal limits
  • Speed limits allow a small percentage of lending above these thresholds

Bright-line Property Rule

有限制

The Bright-line test taxes capital gains on residential property sold within a specified period.

  • Existing properties: 5-year bright-line period (sold within 5 years is taxable)
  • New builds: 2-year bright-line period (from July 2024)
  • Main home exemption applies to the owner's principal residence
  • Tax is at the seller's marginal income tax rate (up to 39%)
  • The bright-line period was reduced from 10 years to the current settings in July 2024
