A new survey by ASB indicates Kiwis aren't expecting house prices to pick up again anytime soon.

According to ASB's Housing Confidence survey, a net 13 percent of respondents believe house prices will go up - down more than 30 percent compared with last quarter.

A net 20 percent of respondents now expect lower interest rates and only a net 8 percent think now is a good time to buy.

ASB chief economist Nick Tuffley says falling interest rates haven't inspired confidence in sellers.
