Introduction

Many first home buyers in New Zealand are finding it impossible to get on to the property ladder. Even with the current uncertainty in the housing markets and a cooling of the prices, house prices in New Zealand are some of the highest in the world. The median house price in New Zealand (at $820,000) is more than ten times the median household’s disposable income. And of course it is worse in Auckland.

So shared-ownership schemes are becoming increasingly common. As practitioners, we need to keep ahead of the different options out there for clients to be able to advise on the various pitfalls and issues.
