    A report is suggesting 80 per cent of New Zealanders believe home ownership is impossible

    A report is suggesting 80 per cent of New Zealanders believe home ownership is impossible


    Post-Covid, property prices surged to an all-time high.

    Data from a 500 strong survey for insurers OneChoice, shows four in five house hunters feel they are locked out of the property market.

    It reveals young people now see themselves as a generation of renters, rather than owners.
