Hamilton is New Zealand's fourth largest city - and the third fastest growing city after Auckland and Pukekohe.

Hamilton is located in the heart of the Waikato, one of New Zealand's richest regions, responsible for 20% of the country's total exports. Agriculture, biotechnology, light aviation, transport logistics, science research, education and healthcare lead the Hamilton economy, providing diverse employment opportunities in the city. According to QV, the average house price in Hamilton in December 2019 was $604,034, up 5.8% for the year, compared to the Auckland City average of $1,231,580. The Auckland market has slowed recently as house prices have become unaffordable for many. The Hamilton market, in contrast, is still steady, with first home buyers and investors buying good quality property in the city. Sources
