A North Shore family are hoping to beat the slowing Auckland market by selling their home for half bitcoin and half cash or all bitcoin.

Dean and Rachel’s 16 year-old, architecturally-designed, open-plan living, four-bedroom home in the North Shore suburb of Unsworth Heights is for sale for its capital value, $1.225 million, but has failed to sell so far.

It may also be the first residential property sale by this payment method in New Zealand.
