Kiwibuild home late delivery exemption
Raja made this Official Information request to Kāinga Ora–Homes and Communities
This request has an unknown status. We're waiting for Raja to read a recent response and update the status.
From: Raja
Dear Kāinga Ora–Homes and Communities,
If a Kiwibuild home was purchased in December 2020 and its delivery was postponed by the developer for 2.5 years, the homeowner is required to occupy the residence for 3 years, totaling approximately 6 years before selling.
Are there any exemptions for homes that are handed over more than 2.5 years later than the originally scheduled settlement date?
Yours faithfully,
Raja
