Statistics on landlord and rental property distributions
Robert Whitaker made this Official Information request to Ministry of Business, Innovation & Employment
The request was successful.
From: Robert Whitaker
Dear Ministry of Business, Innovation & Employment,
I am writing to request statistics relating to the distribution of rental properties amongst landlords.
Based on current (or recent) bond lodgement data and/or other data held by MBIE can you please supply the following statistics:
1. The proportion of residential rental properties lodged by landlords with only one rental property and the total number of landlords in this category.
2. The proportion of residential rental properties lodged by landlords with between 2 and 5 rental properties and the total number of landlords in this category.
3. The proportion of residential rental properties lodged by landlords with between 5 and 20 rental properties and the total number of landlords in this category.
4. The proportion of residential rental properties lodged by landlords with between 21 and 50 rental properties and the total number of landlords in this category.
5. The proportion of residential rental properties lodged by landlords with between 50 and 200 rental properties and the total number of landlords in this category.
5. The proportion of residential rental properties lodged by landlords with more than 200 rental properties and the total number of landlords in this category.
If possible, I would like this data broken down regionally and ideally sub-regionally (i.e. the same suburb-based breakdown that is available for average rents on the Tenancy Services website).
Finally — if it is possible — a further breakdown of these figures based on the split between those rented by the owner of the property and those rented by an agent (e.g. a property management company, a trust or some other non-owner entity).
Yours faithfully,
Robert Whitaker
