Proudly presenting the latest residential rental data as supplied by the Real Estate Institute of New Zealand (REINZ).

Please note: According to MBIE, by removing the most recent month of data, this provides a more complete and accurate picture of all bonds lodged by tenancy start date. Therefore, this report is two months in arrears as per the data provided by MBIE.

In some Auckland areas, we’re seeing the median weekly rent return to the levels we experienced at the same time last year. Or, in some cases, even noting Auckland rents decreasing. 

In May 2025, the average weekly rent for three-bedroom rental properties in Kingsland was $775. Compare this to $850 in May last year and you’ll see an 8.8% decrease in rent prices.

In Mangere, the median rent for a three-bedroom home was $710 per week, a 1.4% increase from $700 the year previous. 

If you’re unsure about what rent you should be charging, please get in touch with our team today for a complimentary rental appraisal.

A Note from us,

A Smarter Rental Market Needs Smarter Strategy

The rental market is evolving – and for savvy investors, that’s an opportunity.

Yes, we’re seeing changes: listings are up, operating costs have increased, and tenant expectations are higher than ever. But with change comes clarity – and a chance to refocus on long-term gains.

Recent surveys show more landlords are reassessing their portfolios. Some are exiting, but others are doubling down – upgrading, consolidating, or working with expert property managers to maximise returns in this new environment.

 

  • Tenant demand remains strong in well-located, well-managed homes.
  • Rents are holding steady in many areas, especially where quality is high.
  • Experienced investors are planning ahead, locking in great tenants, and focusing on smart, sustainable returns

 

At 360 Property Management, we believe this market rewards professionalism over guesswork. The days of “set and forget” investing are behind us – but the fundamentals remain strong when you have the right team by your side.

Whether you’re reviewing your rent, considering your next move, or simply want expert eyes on your investment strategy, we’re here to help.

For more information, please get in touch with our property managers today. Let’s make the most of this market, together.
