PHOTO: STUFF – Realtor John Ross says there’s always been a huge demand from people wanting to live in the Hutt but the housing wasn’t there.

Dozens of houses in a new Lower Hutt subdivision and a Wellington suburb have been sold before the marketing campaign was even launched.

In a little over a week, 51 of the 56 available two and three-bedroom townhouses at a Jackson St site in Petone, named Paetutu, had been sold.

Professionals realtor John Ross expected the next five to sell by “Tuesday, Wednesday at the latest”.
