Reading the local market
Ngaio North: the median weekly rent recorded in newly lodged bonds was NZ$685 for all dwelling types, all bedroom counts, over the 3 months ending August 2026. The reported sample was 12 bonds, randomly rounded by MBIE.
The all bedroom counts sample contains 12 reported newly lodged bonds across all dwelling types for the 3 months ending August 2026. The middle 50% of recorded weekly rents falls between NZ$553 and NZ$754. Counts are randomly rounded. Rooms and boarding houses are included in the source's combined dwelling category, so this is not a house-only rent estimate.
MBIE statistical area: Ngaio North. Its boundary may cover only part of the commonly named suburb; no wider suburb aggregate is inferred.
The reporting window is the 3 months ending August 2026. The source snapshot was updated on 3 October 2026. It records a completed bond-reporting period, rather than rents being advertised today.
The NZ$685 median describes this all bedroom counts bond sample; it is not a rental appraisal. Current asking rents, a property's condition and its precise location can differ from the sample. Use the source figures as context when requesting property-specific advice. Monthly and annual rent changes are withheld while source comparability is under review.
Historical context
Tenancy Services advises that bond data is provisional during its system migration. Recent releases may be incomplete, revised or not directly comparable with earlier periods. Changes and market explanations are withheld pending comparability review.
These are source reporting periods. Different reporting periods and changes in property mix mean their difference is not a measure of rent growth.

All bedrooms · All dwelling types · 3 months ending August 2026. Newly bonded rents from the same source period. Property mixes differ between areas; these figures are not a ranking. Statistical areas can cover only part of a suburb.
Built on Transparency
The median is the middle rent in the source sample. Half of the sampled rents are at or below it and half are at or above it. It describes the homes in that sample; it is not a valuation of an individual property.
These rents come from newly lodged rental bonds. They are not current asking rents, the rent of every existing tenancy, or evidence that a property advertised elsewhere has been let.
MBIE statistical area: Ngaio North. Its boundary may cover only part of the commonly named suburb; no wider suburb aggregate is inferred.
