It found median prices for Auckland houses rose from $312,453 in January last year to $358,270 last month, rocketing ahead in the 12-month period by $45,817.
Barfoot & Thompson director Peter Thompson said prices even held up during the traditionally quiet pre-Christmas period and he was hoping for a "steady and solid" year, citing the number of February sales so far as a good omen.
