Annual And Monthly Home Consents Lift In August 2025
There were 34,078 new homes consented in Aotearoa New Zealand in the year ended August 2025, up 1.3 percent compared with the year ended August 2024, according to figures released by Stats NZ today.
“The number of homes consented has started to pick up in both monthly and annual terms, but is still down one-third from its peak in mid-2022,” economic indicators spokesperson Michelle Feyen said.
“The uptick in consented homes has been driven partly by multi-unit developments in Auckland and Otago.”
Multi-unit homes include townhouses, apartments, retirement village units, and flats.
