New Zealand has strong population growth due to its progressive immigration policy and birth rates. Many parts of the country are experiencing housing shortages translating into strong tenant demand and price growth. This trend is expected to continue with recent population projections by the New Zealand Department of Statistics forecasting up to 64% growth over the next 17 years. Auckland city is predicted to almost double its population in the next 40 years. For property investors, this represents outstanding potential growth in demand and return on investment. New Zealand's property prices are also relatively undervalued compared to its closest neighbour Australia. There are many other benefits for investing in New Zealand including:

Tax friendly nation - No stamp duty, mortgage stamp duty, land tax, property purchase tax, nor capital gains tax.

A relatively untapped market - New Zealand's property prices are relatively cheaper than its major trading partners and most OECD countries.

High Rental Yields - Rental yields of 6-10% in its major cities - a capital growth orientated market with a good cash flow position.

Great exchange rates

A Government that welcomes overseas investment - The Government encourages foreign investment to help meet the growing population's increasing demand for property.
