Community housing provider delivery dashboard for October released

Published 14 Oct 25

This dashboard provides a monthly summary about the delivery of social and Māori homes funded from Budget 2024 and Budget 2025.

Our latest dashboard shows progress, with projects steadily advancing through the delivery pipeline. The social housing delivery pipeline remains strong, with 2,031 homes expected. Māori housing delivery has increased slightly, with 1,100 homes expected.

Some variation in the total of number of homes delivered and regional split is anticipated as we continue to work with providers on projects that are proposed and under evaluation.

We’ve also made minor improvements to the dashboard which make it clearer by aligning regional titles with Stats NZ and grouping Tasman with Nelson/Marlborough to better reflect actual delivery.
