April has arrived, and we are coming out of the traditional “busy” period where most tenancy turnover occurs. Activity naturally begins to settle at this time of year, and we’re seeing that reflected across our portfolio.

As we move into autumn, the Christchurch rental market remains steady, with consistent tenant demand across most suburbs. While tenants have slightly more choice than we saw over the past couple of years, well-presented homes priced appropriately for the market are still attracting good enquiry and securing quality tenants.

February is traditionally one of the busiest months for tenant demand, and that’s continuing across Christchurch. Well-presented homes priced in line with the market are still attracting strong enquiry and securing tenants quickly.
