Latest News August’s Monthly Rental Market Update
Rental market marks time in August September 2026 The rental market marked time in August as activity slowed and the broader conditions remained steady, with no change in prices or stock levels.
Stock levels were virtually unchanged in August, with 779 homes available for rent at the end of the month, compared with 777 in July.
Data from Barfoot & Thompson’s portfolio of rental homes across Auckland, Northland and Bay of Plenty shows there were 22,165 enquiries about properties for let during August, down 15.3% from July.
“Stock levels are relatively high, but are down on much of last year, when the number of available rentals stayed well above 800 most months of the year,” says Anil.
Attendance at property viewings and applications also eased in line with the drop in enquiries. Overall, a total of 588 properties were let, 9.5% fewer than in July. “The market was ticking along in August, and not rushing in any particular direction thanks to steady prices and good stock levels,” says Anil Anna, General Manager Property Management at Barfoot & Thompson. “While activity is quieter, renters are still out and about, and wellpresented properties at the right price are continuing to attract interest.”
The average weekly rent in Auckland was flat too, hovering just under the $700 mark, where it’s been for much of the year, finishing August at $699.00, up just 0.9% on last year. “The current combination of stable rents, good availability and slightly less competition than we saw in July, mean people thinking about moving have a bit more time to consider their options.” In Auckland, weekly rents for one and two-bedroom properties were showing slightly stronger annual rent increases than other sized-homes, up 1.2% and 1.1% respectively, while large homes with five or more bedrooms saw
the least change at 0.6% year-onyear. By area in Auckland, rents rose the most for homes on the North Shore and in Rodney, up 1.9% and 1.7% respectively, but were down 0.3% in the central city apartment market. Things were similar around Northland, with no movement in rents month-on-month, and a 1.7% increase year-on-year, settling at an average of $584.18 per week. In Bay of Plenty, where the company operates branches in Cherrywood, Mount Maunganui, Ōmokoroa and Waihi, the average weekly rent was $660.26 in August, moving less than a dollar compared to July, but up 3.8% on last year.

What kitchen updates should landlords consider for a good return on investment?
Top Tips
Property investors are always seeking to increase the return on their rentals. In between tenants, it is a good time to consider what updates or changes you might make to your kitchen that could increase the property’s value and what you can expect to charge per week. Each update or improvement will cost you money at the outset so you want to make sure that you can recoup those costs within a reasonable amount of time.
Remember we have more information and a range of tips and guides to help whether you are buying, selling or renting. Find out more about our Property Management Service here: barfoot.co.nz/landlords/ how-we-help-landlords
Why improvements may make sense now? Property prices in Auckland and Northland mean that first-time ownership is not realistic for most in the most coveted areas. People are renting for longer periods of time. The right upgrades can attract your ideal tenant for an extended lease period. This means that there is less turnover and cost to you to clean, repair and refresh the property between tenancies. Sensible enhancements can quickly pay for themselves. Paying special attention to the kitchen adds immediate appeal to your place.
Reconsidering the right benchtop While they are affordable - plastic laminate benchtops wear out from heavy use and overall are less attractive than other options. Landlords are often on a tight budget and looking for a quick fix to prepare it for the next person to move in. It can be tempting to consider covering them in tile to offer some durability. Is this easy to do? Is this a good idea? Yes, it can be done but there are serious challenges especially if you are considering this as a DIY project.
It's important to understand that a plastic top does not absorb any moisture whatsoever. If you use a water-based adhesive, the only way it will do the trick is if the water absorbs into the tiles. Epoxy adhesives can be tricky to work with for novices. Before you undertake this on your own, do thorough research on the internet for best practices or call in a professional. In lieu of trying a repair project, it may make more sense to tear them out and start from scratch with something more durable. The update will make your kitchen more eyecatching and modern. People are willing to pay more for a cool kitchen as that is where they spend a good amount of time preparing meals. This makes new countertops a really good investment not only because they will last longer but also because of the aesthetics that prospective tenants will find so appealing. Granite is a great idea that can add sophistication. However, the cost may put some landlords off. There are good fibre cement-based products that will provide a quality sleek surface at a much lower price point. Quartz can give the granite vibe and is a much cheaper option. Recycled benchtops keep rubbish from landfills and are reasonably priced. These are only slightly more expensive than laminate and is still cheaper than most stone selections.
Should you opt for appliances? It is not standard practice to include things like a refrigerator, washer, dryer or a microwave. For people new to the country, they are often willing to pay top-dollar for a place they can move right into. This does not mean you have to spend thousands on premium appliances, simple whiteware appliances will often suffice. There are many websites where you can find gently used items that are near new at a great savings. You can put a clause in the lease that minor repairs will be the tenant’s responsibility. Full mechanical failure though maybe something you will be responsible for. Units and homes with these things supplied often get snapped up quickly and for more rent than those without these features.
Look at what’s underfoot Selecting the right flooring can add value to your rental property from both an aesthetics and durability standpoint. Wood floors, while very classic may not be the best choice for high-traffic areas - especially since as the owner you may take special care of them but renters may not be as careful. Pets, high heels, spills, active kids or the wrong cleaners can bring about damage requiring refinishing. You are better off investing in tiles that will keep moisture away and is less likely to incur scratches. Period re-grouting, steam cleaning and resealing may be necessary over time. If you have a very smooth floor without dips or divots, laminate floor in lieu of wood flooring is a good option. Know that quality can vary greatly between products. In short, you get what you pay for.
Opt for laminate flooring with a lifetime warranty to ensure that it will last for years to come. Vinyl is affordable but sometimes tenants will balk at it if it looks or feels cheap or dated. If an area is prone to water leaks then vinyl is a solid solution and no sealing or grouting is needed. It will also work well on uneven surfaces.
Any of these improvements may increase the appeal of your property.

FAQs
From the very beginning, we work hard to ensure your investment is well looked after. Here’s an overview of what you can expect when you choose to work with our expert team.
How much will your service cost me? Barfoot & Thompson charges a fee of 8.5 percent + GST (9.5 percent + GST if the property is furnished) of rent collected and any repairs, maintenance, and renovations carried out, or invoices paid on your behalf. These costs may be tax‑deductible.
How often will you pay me? We pay you monthly or twice a month, whichever you prefer, by directly crediting funds into your account. A comprehensive monthly statement detailing funds collected and disbursed on your behalf can be posted or emailed to you anywhere in the world. Invoice copies of accounts paid are included. We also have a Landlord portal for inspections and statements.
Do you collect a bond? Yes. The Residential Tenancies Act requires that no more than four weeks bond be collected. Unless otherwise agreed, Barfoot & Thompson considers two weeks to be the minimum that should be paid. The bond is paid before the tenant takes possession and held by the Bond Centre until the tenant vacates.
Will my property have a rent increase? We will remind you when a standard rent review is due (every 12 months) and recommend whether a rent increase is justified in line with market rent. We take care of sending out the relevant notices to ensure the rent increase takes effect according to the legal timeframe.
Does Barfoot & Thompson guarantee me for any loss of rent? No. But there are insurance companies that might be able to assist.
What if my tenant doesn’t pay the rent? Barfoot & Thompson rent collection is computer monitored, enabling us to act very quickly when a rental payment is missed. The debt recovery process commences immediately. While we take every possible action to resolve the matter, in some cases it may be necessary to take the tenant through
the mediation process or to the Tenancy Tribunal. If this is the case, you will not be charged for our time.
I will be moving overseas - can you handle all repairs? Yes. Our property managers use a range of contractors who are highly skilled, competitively priced and quick to respond to our calls. If you have a preference for any particular tradesperson we would be pleased to accommodate this. We vet them all for insurances. Legally, if you are overseas for 21 days or more, you are required to appoint someone to manage your property.
How often will you inspect my property? Inspections are carried out on a regular basis. The frequency should be discussed with your property manager at the commencement of the management. Be sure to check what your insurance policy states as well, as they do generally have a set frequency. Pass this onto your property manager and we will set it at what is required. If no set frequency is required, we will inspect your property a minimum of twice a year.
Can you help with an appraisal if I want to sell my property? Your property manager can arrange with any of our experienced sales staff to have the property appraised and then listed for sale. This can be a very delicate situation and it is important that it’s handled professionally and efficiently. It is our job to ensure you and your tenants’ interests are protected. Your property manager will be happy to walk you through the process at any time.
Do you offer a Body Corporate service? Yes, we offer full body corporate services. Ask our property managers for more details.
Do you offer commercial property management services? Yes, we offer comprehensive property management services for commercial investments. Ask our property managers for more details.
