Sorry, but you dont understand the rental market. There are huge numbers of individuals, couples and families who need to rent at a time in their lives because it suits them. They dont necessarily want to have a huge debt at that time in their lives for a number if reasons. Why do many uneducated people (in the property market) immediately think that every tenant wants to own their own home? Some will never be able to afford a house, some like the flexibility of renting. Some also prefer to rent because they are in a relationship and dont want to commit to owning a house together just yet. The list goes on......

Here we go again; doubters, conspiracy theories, too much money being spent. Just like the Dunedin Stadium. Its called investing in Dunedins future! If you want Dunedin to prosper, have more jobs, better housing, better standard of living, more tourists etc then Dunedins economy has to grow. Sitting on our hands, is why in the past, Dunedin has stood still while other major cities have reaped the benefits of our demise.
