The prices above were recorded during the six months to 31 December 2012.

Market rent is described in the Residential Tenancies Act as the amount of money a willing landlord might reasonably expect to receive, and a willing tenant might reasonably expect to pay for the tenancy, in comparison with rent levels for similar properties in similar areas.

Rental prices from the Tenancy Services Division include rentals for social housing so market rents in the lower quarter of prices are unlikely to be found in the private sector in some suburbs.

Rental properties in New Zealand are typically let from around the beginning of the calendar year for 12 months. Because of this there is generally an increase in rents at the beginning of the year.

The Tenancy Services Division figures show that in Northland, one of the most expensive average rent areas for a two bedroomed house is in the Whangarei suburbs of Kamo / Tikipunga / Kensington at $260 per week. The cheapest is in Ahipara / Kaitaia at $240 per week.

For a three bedroomed house in Northland the most expensive average rent is in Whangarei – North West Rural at $316 per week and the cheapest is in Ahipara / Kaitaia at $240 per week.
