4 June 2021
A new Stats NZ survey of thousands of builders, developers and owners has found around half of surveyed projects for new homes were moderately to severe impacted by the pandemic.
Over two-thirds of respondents reported issues with the availability of materials and equipment.
New home building projects in Auckland are much more impacted than those in other regions.
Meanwhile, building activity increased 3.7 percent in the three months to March, compared to the previous three months ending December.
