Indigenous Residential Development and Property Investment

Abstract

This article looks into indigenous residential development and property investment in both New Zealand and Canada. New Zealand and more specifically Waikato-Tainui and Ngai Tahu appear to be leading the way in regards to indigenous property development and investment. Canadian Indigenous groups are also entering the property market but little international literature exists around other groups. This results in the conclusion that New Zealand and Canada are the only two countries where indigenous groups are becoming significant players in the property market.
