New Zealand is a country full of international migrants seeking to build a better life for themselves and their families here in Aotearoa, and are an important tenant group which unfortunately often face rental barriers. Landlords can benefit hugely from welcoming migrant tenants while managing risks effectively.
Challenges
- Limited NZ rental or credit history
- Delays in visa or employment confirmation
- Communication or cultural differences
Best Practices
- Request employment references and proof of income
- Use conditional tenancy offers pending visa approval
- Maintain open communication and cultural sensitivity
