strong demand for rentals with low housing stock creating pressure for tenants to look for a home and
increasing the rent values. A 4% drop in the number of rentals available for this time last year in September.

We are still seeing lots of enquiry for our available rentals coming from outside the region and with
immigration delays easing the demand for housing is only going to intensify.
Southland stats staying strong.
