Enter your weekly rent or move the slider to see your annual property management costs with WeRent compared to the average Auckland property manager.
All figures are per year and exclude GST unless you tick "including GST" (15%).
WeRent costs are our published fees: $111 month management, $5 month disbursements, a $26 month letting levy (no letting fee when tenants change) and 4 routine inspections a year at $55. The initial inspection is free.
Average manager fee of 8% of rent. Most traditional Auckland managers charge 7.5% to 8.5% plus GST. Source: Opes Partners.
Letting fee of one week's rent per new tenancy, the usual charge. Source: Opes Partners.
A new tenant every two years, so the letting fee is spread as half a week's rent per year. This is our estimate; change it above to suit your property.
Four routine inspections a year at $50 each for the average manager. Published Auckland inspection fees range from $0 to about $100. Sources: Opes Partners Auckland roundup (2026), MoneyBalance.
Repair markups are left out. Some managers add 5% to 15% to tradespeople's invoices; WeRent adds nothing. Including them would increase your saving.
Extras are left out on both sides: advertising, credit checks, Tribunal filing fees, rent guarantees and other optional services vary between companies.
The default rent of $650 week is the Auckland regional median from Stats NZ tenancy bond data, December 2025.
