I’ve been incredibly lucky with Alex Taylor: professional, friendly, and always helpful. He’s handled everything brilliantly - I’d give him 6 stars if I could.


For the past year, my Houst contact has been incredibly helpful - coordinating repairs, upgrades, and even being on-site when needed. Super reliable and accommodating.


The staff is available 24/7. Messages sent are replied to very quickly. The information about the properties is detailed and clear. Everything goes very smoothly.


The house is well maintained and clean, the dashboard provides up to date and historical information & the guests are taken care of.

Short-term rentals in Mount Eden are regulated under the Auckland Unitary Plan and New Zealand's Resource Management Act framework. Whether your property requires resource consent depends on the zone, frequency of letting and duration of stays, so it is worth confirming your property's status with Auckland Council before listing. Owners in apartment buildings should check their body corporate rules, which commonly restrict short-term rental use. Rental income is taxable under New Zealand income tax rules and must be declared to Inland Revenue. Our team manages compliance as part of the service, and you can read the full detail in our guide to Auckland's Airbnb and visitor accommodation rules.
Mount Eden is a quiet residential suburb south of the CBD, centred on the volcanic cone of Maungawhau and a relaxed village high street. It attracts families and longer-stay guests who want a residential Auckland experience with easy access to the city centre by bus and rail.
