North Canterbury town launches housing scheme to attract new families
Local Rebekah Kelly, one several residents on the newly-formed Hurunui Community Development Trust, says a new equity housing scheme will be great for families who had never thought of getting on the property ladder before.
“We want people to be able to live here. It's a great place to live."
The trust aims to build 10 new houses for 10 new families within the next five years.
Families involved with the scheme will be able to offer what they afford for a house, instead of having huge mortgage payments with interest. It will be similar to a rent-to-buy scheme, but the finer details are still being confirmed, Kelly says.
