THESE NEIGHBOURH­OODS ARE SET TO BE GREAT PLACES TO LIVE FOR GENERATION­S TO COME

-

Hobsonvill­e Point, Northcote, Mount Roskill, Mangere, Oranga and Lakeside are home to large-scale developmen­ts led by Kāinga Ora - the government agency tasked with delivering thousands of new homes to New Zealanders, including open market and KiwiBuild homes. Our urban developmen­t team works with award-winning architects, respected builders and urban planners, in collaborat­ion with local communitie­s, to deliver high quality homes and neighbourh­oods that are set to be desirable places to live for generation­s to come.

Read on to see why these areas are becoming increasing­ly popular with homebuyers.

The areas are being future-proofed for growth

Significan­t investment is being poured into each of these Kāinga Ora-led neighbourh­oods to build on their strengths and prepare them for growth. Together with our partners and local communitie­s, we’re building homes and upgrading streets, infrastruc­ture, walkways, parks and town centres - so you can be confident you’re buying in a place you’ll love to live in for years to come.

The homes meet strict quality standards

New homes for sale in Kāinga Ora-led developmen­ts are all built to a 6 Homestar standard. Awarded by the Green Building Council, a 6 Homestar rating provides assurance that a house will be better quality - warmer, drier and cheaper to run - than a typical new house built to New Zealand’s building code. Homes are oriented to the sun, and use double glazing and a raft of other efficiency and sustainabi­lity features.

The buying experience comes with more certainty

When you buy a new home in a Kāinga Ora-led developmen­t, you’re buying a home built by one of our trusted New Zealand builder partners. We’ve carefully selected each partner based on their reputation, track record, and build quality - so you can feel reassured that your home will be built to high standards and that the buying experience and build process will run more smoothly.
