Scott Dunn: City Sales sales manager on property sales picking up since the election - Heather du Plessis-Allan Drive

The election result looks to have lit a fire under the property market.

Real estate agents in Wellington say business has picked up since the 'blue wave' crashed through.

National and ACT have both promised to phase in interest deductibility for landlords and make it easier for banks to lend money.

City Sales sales manager Scott Dunn says people saw a change of Government coming.

He says Auckland's market picked up about three weeks ago.

"Our change happened about two or three weeks ago, we've had to double our auction offerings from the demand. From here until the end of the year, it's very, very busy."
