Couples earning up to $180,000 a year will be allowed to buy affordable KiwiBuild homes – as long as they live in them for at least three years.

The Government is unveiling on Wednesday who will be eligible to buy one of the 100,000 affordable KiwiBuild homes it is hoping to build over the next 10 years.

Documents released to Stuff show the criteria will include an income test – but one that will still allow 92 per cent of first home buyers to get into the scheme.
