Investment Analysis

Hailed as New Zealand’s ‘student town,’ Dunedin’s diverse and growing economy is driven by sectors such as education, healthcare, technology, and tourism. In addition, the city is home to the renowned University of Otago and several research institutes, attracting a steady influx of students and professionals.

Dunedin lacks warm, dry, affordable houses, making brand-new, competitively-priced townhouses in the city an investment opportunity worth considering. Townhouses rent well in Dunedin because of their scarcity and general lack of affordable homes. As a result, investors can expect to achieve healthy rental yields north of 5%. We are expecting rents to continue to rise in Dunedin due to the lack of supply and the scale of the infrastructure and development happening in the city.

Unlike New Zealand’s other main centres, townhouses in Dunedin are relatively scarce. In the last two years, there have been roughly 150 new build townhouses brought to market in Dunedin, and today, there are approximately 50 available for sale; this is minuscule in comparison to cities like Christchurch and Auckland, where there are thousands of new build homes available for sale.

Dunedin also needs more short-term accommodation, especially during weekends when the city hosts events at its 30,000-seat stadium. A savvy investor could take advantage of this and rent these homes as short-term accommodation. Short-term property investment analysis is available on request.

Unlike several of the other townhouse developments for sale in Dunedin, Brunel Street is situated on a hill, and most of the flat land in the city is reclaimed land; this includes the suburbs of South Dunedin, St Kilda, St Clair, and Tainui. These suburbs range in elevation from 0.0m to 1.5m above sea level and have a sand base. These areas are widely known as flood risk zones, and investors buying homes in these suburbs are finding it harder and harder to get finance and insurance. Investors minimize these risks by purchasing in a hillside suburb like Mornington rather than the likes of St Kilda.
