"The housing market in October followed a similar pattern to that we have seen for the past four months, and we remain in a relatively stable period in terms of prices and activity," said Barfoot & Thompson managing director Peter Barfoot.
"The feature that was different was the number of new homes listed for the month. At 1314, this was an increase of 4% on that for last month and the highest number of homes listed since March.
"It created greater choice and raised buyer interest."
Thompson said that in October prices rose by 1.1% on September, with the average price climbing to $553,765.
