We're not saying 'Ka kite' to 'Kia ora' but let's challenge ourselves a little more for Te Wiki o te Reo Māori...

Held from the 11th-17th September, Māori Language week gives us a chance to celebrate our beautiful national language. Maybe you'll be celebrating by watching the Toku Reo videos and using Te Aka (Maōri Dictionary) to improve your knowledge, or maybe you've found a buddy for the week that will only kōrero in te reo with you. Ka pai!

If you're a fan of chocolate, we have five blocks of Whittakers Miraka Kirīmi tiakarete to give away. Whether long or short, simply share your show-off phrase below to be in to win. (Winners randomly drawn and notified on Mon, 18th Sept).

Why do property an analysts use median house price?

Matt from Matt Wineera - Thats Real Estate with Matt Wineera

Median house price explained
There are technical reasons why the median provides a more accurate picture of what is happening to the prices of houses rather than the average.

As an example, assume there are 11 houses sold in a month with a price range of $200,000 to $300,000 and an average … View more
Median house price explained
There are technical reasons why the median provides a more accurate picture of what is happening to the prices of houses rather than the average.

As an example, assume there are 11 houses sold in a month with a price range of $200,000 to $300,000 and an average price of $250,000.

Now replace one of those houses with a house that sold for $1 million. The average is now $318,182, even though 10 of the 11 houses for the month sold for less than this value.

The median would be the price of the middle house sold in the range (in this case the sixth house), which more accurately reflects what the majority of the houses sold for.

REINZ uses medians to provide a more accurate measure of the mid-point of house prices that reflects what most people are going to be buying and selling houses for.
