Are consent numbers telling the whole story?
In providing free property information to kiwis, homes.co.nz collects data from each council around NZ. So when a new property is built, we hear about it. We get monthly updates on new and changing properties and can measure how many new properties enter the housing stock around the country.
We’re uniquely placed to track changes in the housing stock at the end of the build process. Our analysis considers properties after they are consented, building is completed and codes of compliance are issued.
While digging into the numbers, we’ve noticed a few interesting cases where high consent numbers do not necessarily translate to higher numbers of houses.
