Good tenants for 7 years and wants them out because of the new rules. Can someone explain what the problem could be besides the LL not making any sense ?

Because the landlord is re evaluating whether he even wants to keep it as a rental. With the rules changing, seems like a few landlords are doing the same.
At the end of the day it's house, so his choice.

But according to landlords union, A Church etc etc, good tenants are never evicted using the 90 day no explanation needed. It's only used on the scumbags.

What was said, many times, was that no cause termination notices were given for many reasons. Perhaps you did not comprehend the comments.

On 11 February the rules around terminating tenancies became more complex. In some cases a whole lot more complex requiring evidence, a hearing and a court order, with decisions often relying on an adjudicator's interpretation of vague terms like 'reasonable'.

Add that to a huge number of mandatory upgrades and other compliance, and it made perfect sense for a landlord to make decisions about their asset while they still could.

Does that help?

Is the OP a landlord? Landlords get why the person evicted those tenants.

Hopefully more will follow suit and let the houses be available for people to purchase. If enough do it at the same time, the market will hopefully start to shift in favour of people actually wanting to make a home for themselves as opposed to people who find it easier to live off others than doing anything actual productive job.

Seems that LL is just panicking. He going to left with no income and two options, either sell or risk another tenant which might not be as good as the first. Not a good investment strategy.

So what happens to the people who can't afford to buy, or can't get a mortgage, when all of the landlords have sold up? Let me guess, your answer will be MOAR Socialism, right?

yeah look at the last 2 govts we have had in power - both have sat back and done SFA. I had hopes this current govts would do something but after a bit of a hiss and roar, still nothing of substance, all the while the house prices going through the roof.

You need to ask your Government that question...
I think it’s called “unintended consequences” these days. When I was young we called it “the ripple effect”.
Been discussed on here for a long time and to most regular readers this is, sadly, exactly as they predicted.????

The landlord might have other, better places to invest their hard earned money

I think you need to go back further than 2 governments.
Under Helen Clark Auckland house prices went up 113% in 9 years, under John Key it was about 93%.
In 3 years of Adern that rate has increased and I'd hate to guess what her 9 (heaven forbid) year total will be.

for sure. The problem really goes back at least 30 years, but it has exponentially increased in the last 10-15 years for sure.

I think John key called it his ‘halo effect’ LMFAO ???? the problems started in Auckland and have radiated outwards. Now the whole country is ******.

The last government thought that high house prices were a GOOD thing, and it was obvious from the beginning that the current government is powered by fairy farts and happy thoughts, which is why I didn't vote for them. I voted for the Cat Killer instead.

What a load of cobblers.
We have a business that employs around 19 employees.
We just bought our 3rd rental, a doer upper.
Also own 16 acres of bare residential land.
This is our pension plan for when your Govt does the dirty on us.

The only way to fix this issue is through stable - to falling population levels. Nothing else is going to budge.

Good on you smallwoods.
I think you are to be admired for employing people ( it is a big responsibility, bloody hard work and very necessary for our country) and investing for your retirement is also a very wise thing to be doing.
Congratulations ????????

Not saying you are wrong, but check out the chart I just posted. We had high immigration over a lot of that time, but not so much in the past year. And yet ...

artemis - 2021-02-20 19:26:00

The population was at record levels immediately before the borders closed, very few so called temporary immigrants have left in the intervening 10 months. The population pressure on the housing market is still extreme after years of massive immigration.

That can't be right. In 2017 Labour pledged to reduce immigration by 10,000 - 20,000 a year.

Population can grow without immigration. And there was already a property shortage before covid. I'm sure the population hasn't shrunk in the meantime.

Just election promises, if you believe them you are a mug.
Look at the USA,
At the end of Trumps term they were only vaccinating 1,000,00 people a day - boo, orange man bad.
Biden on the other hand promised to vaccinate 100,000,000 in 100 days - woo hoo, senile old man good.

Maybe, just maybe, there are multiple causes of house price inflation, of which immigration was just one?

Trump: "…when you have 15 people, and the 15 within a couple of days is going to be down to close to zero, that’s a pretty good job we’ve done."

495,000 dead people later....

Yeah, orange man was worse than bad.

To be fair, he did try to head it off at the pass by banning inbound flights from China- and was lambasted for being a racist. And wasn't it up to individual states to sort out their covid response?

Other than those lucky enough to live on islands, every country failed utterly to stop the spread of the virus. The real failures were the CCP and the WHO. Although that assumes that spreading the virus worldwide wasn't a desired outcome.

Apollo11 is correct, saying population growth is a big driver in house prices. I remember the late seventies when every one was fleeing to Australia. There was a news item showing houses in Pakaranga for $40,000. The good old days.

There were people holding 'infection' parties because the rumour was that it only killed old white people, and the deaths among black Americans soared as a result. Trump was only the apex of the stupidity pyramid.
