2025 has redefined what it means to be a compliant landlord.

And if you’re not up to speed, you could be breaching the law – without even realising it.

This isn’t just another update. It’s a complete shift in how tenancies are governed in New Zealand.

Download the 2025 Landlord Information Guide – it’s free, easy to follow, and a must for DIY landlords.

– Can tenants make minor alterations – and are you now required to say yes, even if you’d prefer not to?

– Can a tenant keep a pet – and do you still have the right to say no if they want to bring in a dog?

– Could you be fined just for going overseas for more than three weeks?

– Could your termination notice be ruled retaliatory – and lead to a $6,500 fine, even if you gave the correct notice?

– Is there really such a thing as a ‘no reason’ termination?

– When can a tenant walk away from a tenancy with just 2 days’ notice?

– Is your insulation, heater or extractor fan still compliant, even if you installed them a few years ago?

These aren’t tweaks. They’re substantial changes to how rental properties must be managed in New Zealand.

If you’re a self-managing landlord, you need this guide. If you’re with Ray White, you can relax – we’ve got it covered.

Either way, the 2025 Landlord Information Guide is essential reading.
