What local tenants owe Kāinga Ora
Five Waikato Kāinga Ora tenants owe $127,000 in rent between them, with the biggest single debt at $33,000.
Across the region, tenants are $1.58m behind on payments, as Kāinga Ora takes a harder line on those who aren’t keeping up. That includes faster repayment plans for the 2000 tenants nationwide who owe more than 12 weeks of rent.
