Yeah, I have a friend who has a Kiwibuild apartment, they have a ridiculous amount of cupboards, a washer/dryer, storage in the basement for his mountain bike.
That's kinda on the buyer though, even if you're buying off plans, all this is on the plans you sign off on.
To an extent, choice isn't a huge feature of our housing market. That will certainly change eventually if theres a big increase in supply, but therell be a lot of poorly thought out stuff in the housing stock to get to that point
I'm going to be honest here, the constant doom and gloom from you and others in this thread is kinda sad. Every time the "other team" does something even remotely good, you immediately assume it won't work, and set out to explain why.
Any step towards more intensification will mean getting closer to ending the housing crisis, let's celebrate that shall we?
