The Build Ready Development pathway, under the Affordable Housing Fund, helps secure affordable residential developments that may not proceed without Government support. Applications from residential developers for underwrites and pre-purchases close next Friday 16 June (at 4pm). Build Ready Development is open for residential developments that have already achieved resource consent (but haven’t started above the ground construction) and progress has stalled due to the changing market conditions.

The pathway is prioritising developments in regional New Zealand that have been affected by recent severe weather events, and is also assessing eligible applications for developments in other regional locations. (The three main urban centres are not currently being prioritised for assessment.)

The link provides all the information on criteria, prioritisation for assessment, what’s needed to apply, and the link to the application form.
