Here in New Zealand, the cost of living is rising at an alarming rate.

Groceries, petrol and other necessary items have all increased dramatically in the last 12 months.

Rent and interest rates are no exception either. The price of these two things continues to climb along with everything else.

So, we are all looking for the most affordable solutions to any problems we might have.

In an expensive housing market, we can offer a great affordable solution if you need more space at home or the office, or if you have family that is coming to stay.

What’s the solution?

A Just Cabin of course. Let’s take a look at how one of our portable cabins could be the affordable housing solution you have been looking for.

Cost Comparison

With inflation at a historical high, interest rates increasing on a monthly basis and rent steadily climbing, it’s no secret that housing is an expensive commodity right now.

The average weekly rent prices in New Zealand are currently sitting between $340 and $750 depending on where you live in the country.

Our cabins are a much more affordable solution. With weekly rental prices starting at $80 per week, you can maximise the space you have on your property and expand your internal space. Like a rental property, you will pay a refundable bond of up to $300 and there is a delivery fee of between $150 and $300. But overall, you can save some serious dollars by renting one of our cabins.

A Beneficial Solution

So, we already know that a rental cabin can be an affordable housing solution. But, there are heaps of other benefits to consider too:

Stay close to family

It can be so easy to lose touch with the ones you love the most. But, with a cabin on your property, your family can move in for the long-term or have a purpose created space to come and visit any time you want them to!

Maximise existing space

Often, we don't fully utilise the space in our yards. Now, you can maximise the space you have available by placing a cabin there! No need to spend hours trawling TradeMe for rental listings or submit multiple rental applications to a property manager. Instead, use the exterior space you have to get immediate interior space!

Versatile space

Need a guest room, teenage getaway, extra living space or a home office? You can use our cabins for all these things and more. Once you have the cabin at your property, it can even be a multi-use space, simply move in a bed or desk when you need it.

Share Costs

The great thing about having your family members together in one space? You can share costs for just about anything - power, wifi, water, groceries, you name it, you can share it. This can help to negate high bills for each family member.
