Property management in Waiwhetu.
Waiwhetu sits between the Hutt River and the eastern hills, with family housing and quick access to Waterloo and Epuni.
The homes, and the tenants who take them
It is a steady rental suburb for households who want a house and a backyard rather than an apartment.
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 Waiwhetu property, we are the people who appraise it, show it, check the rent and walk through it four times a year.
