I would expect that less career benefit takers would be there wasting housing when they could well be out working hard for some money to pay rent rather than having everything gifted to them. More money needs to go to apprenticeships and education and less to benefits. Government housing should always be a short term solution to most and the long term solution only to the needy not the lazy. sellontrademe - 2021-10-10 09:02:00 |

That is certainly the usual statement these days, but somehow it is never mentioned that most were onsold to community housing providers at reduced price and tenants still qualify for taxpayer subsidised income related rent. And get local support. Then there are those sold because they were at the end of their life or there was no demand for the size / location. Remembering that the waiting list was a quarter of what it is today. So were you aware? Or just repeating what the people have been told to think. artemis - 2021-10-10 09:34:00 |

Don't disagree about apprenticeships etc. However... Young tradie in my family did a trades foundation course. More than 20 started, 4 finished and went on to apprenticeships. Most of the dropouts (some in week 1) were made to go by WINZ or lose the benefit. Sad but true. artemis - 2021-10-10 09:37:00 |

16 | "We will build 10000 homes" ( they built 53 over ) We have approx. 15000 new home buyers coming into the market annually . The average person needs to work and save for 75 years now to get the deposit to buy a home ( Halve that for couples ) woki - 2021-10-10 09:53:00 |

I note that H4H are providing houses under this scheme at some $ 330K per dwelling according to a media release on their website. sparkychap - 2021-10-12 16:10:00 |

Many were demolished near me and the sites split up public private partnership housing built, much of which were sold off privately with a proportion retained for social housing. There were also concessions given for developers to build for guaranteed HNZ tenants where there was so much damage caused by the tenants that the house suppliers withdrew at the earliest possible opportunity. At the same time Councils decided housing wasn't core to their business so sold down council housing. So I am aware of much and more like HNZ first come first serve to locate people in housing giving unfortunate blends of pensioners and addicts. deboron - 2021-10-14 08:09:00 |
