Homeowner told to sell to avoid unruly Kāinga Ora neighbours

From Morning Report, 7:15 am on 9 November 2022

An Auckland homeowner who says Kāinga Ora advised her to sell up and move to get away from its unruly tenants in her neighbourhood, has taken a complaint to the Ombudsman.

After enduring five years of illegal drag racing, loud parties and street fighting, the woman says she was horrified when a Kāinga Ora representative suggested SHE move because there was little the housing agency could do to help her.

Kāinga Ora denies the claim.
