Massive Auckland Upzoning CANCELLED — What Smart Investors Should Do Now | Dave Whitburn x mortgagehq

🌧️ A political storm is brewing over Auckland's housing future, and savvy investors need to know which way the wind is blowing. In this episode of mortgagehq, we break down the explosive Cabinet decision that cancelled plans to upzone for 540,000 new homes in Auckland — a move that could drastically impact property prices, development potential, and long-term growth in New Zealand’s biggest city.

We’re joined by Dave Whitburn, seasoned property investor and development expert, to unpack what this upzoning U-turn means for investors, homeowners, and the entire real estate landscape. With clouds of uncertainty hovering and new market winds blowing, this conversation is your umbrella against future risk—and your map to navigate opportunity.

🏡 Whether you're a first-time investor or a seasoned developer, this is a must-watch video if you're investing in Auckland, buying property in New Zealand, or tracking the ever-changing policy weather system around zoning and intensification.

🔥 Watch now to get ahead of the storm before the rest of the market even sees the clouds.

This upzoning backtrack is more than a headline — it’s a seismic shift in housing strategy, affecting New Zealand property investors, developers, and anyone with skin in the Auckland housing game. The 2024 Cabinet decision will shape not only where homes can be built, but how you should invest, borrow, and plan.
