Supporting Iwi through Affordable Housing
Our Affordable Rental Programme is designed specifically for Ngāti Kahungunu Iwi Incorporated members.
This initiative is the first step in housing iwi members, guided by the following objectives:
Strengthen community well-being through secure housing.
Enable whānau to access affordable rentals.
Support financial growth and savings for a home deposit.
These homes are part of the Whai Kāinga Whai Oranga programme and will be rented at 80% of the market rate. Each tenancy has a maximum period of 5 years, with annual reviews.
Our goal: To provide affordable rental opportunities and help whānau save towards a home deposit.
Please note: This programme is not social housing.
