antonknee:
There may be a whole pile of consented houses coming down the pipe (although cosnented doesn't = built/building), but are they affordable? Are they in places people want to live?
Auckland council estimate that 90% of consents are completed and given a CCC within two years, so that's not too bad,
They are very likely to be where people want to live as I suspect most will already be sold, - but they will end up vacating a whole bunch of homes previously occupied....
