Investment Overview

Halswell, located in the southwest of Christchurch, New Zealand, presents a compelling opportunity for property investors for several reasons. Firstly, it's important to note that Halswell is not a satellite town but a well-established suburb of Christchurch. Most of the green field subdivisions in Canterbury are being developed in and around satellite towns rather than within Christchurch City itself. This distinction is crucial as it means that the suburb benefits from the existing infrastructure, amenities, and services of the city, making it an attractive and convenient place to live.

One of the main reasons Halswell is an excellent investment prospect is its steady growth and development. Over the years, it has seen a surge in residential and commercial construction, enhancing its appeal to potential tenants and homebuyers. This growth is indicative of the area's long-term potential, with ample opportunities for capital appreciation.

Furthermore, Halswell offers a balanced and semi-rural lifestyle within Christchurch City, blending urban conveniences and natural beauty. The suburb boasts multiple parks, recreational areas, including Halswell Quarry, and access to the Port Hills, making it an attractive location for families and outdoor enthusiasts. These factors contribute to consistent demand for housing, ensuring a reliable rental market for property investors.

Investors considering purchasing in Halswell can expect to pay $759,000-$900,000 for a 3-4 bedroom house. All of the house & land packages we are currently recommending in Halswell have expected rental yields between 4.3% - 4.5%, which is more than the average rental yield in Halswell, which sits at 4.3%.
