Maintenance - Providing safe and well maintained housing
Our maintenance team plays an important role in ensuring our homes are safe, well maintained and of a high standard for the whānau we support.
Made up of skilled and experienced professionals, the team takes pride in providing a responsive and reliable service that helps create comfortable and secure homes for our whānau. Their mahi is varied, ranging from everyday repairs and property maintenance through to practical support for whānau as they move between temporary and permanent housing.
Through their work, the team helps ensure our properties remain places where whānau can feel safe, supported and at home.
Poua Ki Raro - Providing sustainable tenancy services for whānau
Poua Ki Raro is responsible for managing and maintaining the community housing properties within our portfolio, ensuring they are safe, well maintained, and suitable for our whānau to call home.
The entity works to identify and secure appropriate properties for whānau in need of housing, while supporting the creation of safe, stable and welcoming living environments.
Through this mahi, Poua Ki Raro plays an important role within our Hapori, helping to ensure whānau have access to secure, quality housing and a place they can feel at home.
Te Ara O Takapū - More than just housing
Our partnership is focused on delivering more than housing. We seek to create safe, stable and connected communities that improve the wellbeing, quality of life and health outcomes of whānau, with a particular focus on supporting Māori and other communities experiencing housing vulnerability.
We have completed the development of a community housing site in Taitā and have plans for two further developments, which together will provide a total of 45 properties. Through this investment, we aim to increase the supply of quality housing and contribute to reducing the number of whānau waiting on the Housing Register.
Our approach is guided by the values and principles of the Māori and Iwi Housing Innovation Framework for Action. We work in partnership with Iwi, local government, developers and our communities to support sustainable Māori housing solutions and create positive, long-term outcomes for whānau.
