“Delivering so many new social homes has taken a huge effort from Community Housing Providers, Kāinga Ora, developers, builders and everyone involved in getting these homes delivered. “We’re not just delivering more social homes – we’re delivering homes that better reflect the needs of the people waiting for them. Around 60 per cent of the new social homes delivered in Auckland are one- and two-bedroom properties. “These 3,034 additional social homes in Auckland form part of more than 8,400 additional social housing places delivered across New Zealand since November 2023. More than 8,400 additional social homes have been delivered nationally between November 2023 and June 2026, including 3,034 in Auckland.
