Wellington's northern suburbs
Property management in Tawa.
Tawa runs along the Kapiti line, with Linden at the southern end and a village centre of its own. The housing is mostly standalone family homes, plus flats and units close to the station.
The homes, and the tenants who take them
Tenants often want garaging, a lawn and a school zone. We price against what has actually rented nearby, not against an asking rent that has sat on Trade Me.
Haven Home Rentals is Amy Lett and Lisa White. Between them there is more than twenty years in residential management, and the company has been owner-operated since May 2023. We are not a franchise desk. If we take on a Tawa property, we are the people who appraise it, show it, check the rent and walk through it four times a year.
What owners in Tawa get
- A free market rent appraisal before you commit
