Breakdown by property type

Apartments and townhouse command highest rent

Apartments and townhouses consistently receive higher rental than the Auckland average. Both apartments and townhouses tend to be in more central locations and command a premium price for that reason.

Proximity to the central city a factor

Apartments receive the highest rent, with an average of $497.06. Proximity to the central city seems to be the greatest determinant for the amount of rent received for two bedroom properties.
