🏟️ From empty stadiums to burning budgets — what is Auckland even doing?
Auckland. The "Super City" that’s slowly collapsing under its own weight.
In this no-holds-barred exposé, MortgageHQ takes a sledgehammer to the delusions propping up New Zealand’s largest city. From billion-dollar stadium vanity projects to decaying state houses and bureaucratic buffoonery, this is the reality behind the headlines.
We’re not here to sugarcoat. Auckland is a case study in how bad planning, political cowardice, and urban stupidity can turn a world-class opportunity into a cautionary tale.
🔍 Inside this episode:
Eden Park vs the waterfront stadium fantasy: Who’s cashing in and who’s paying?
State housing disgrace: Rot, ruin, and red tape
Why investors are fleeing Auckland’s core suburbs — and where they’re going instead
Transport gridlock, council incompetence, and endless committee-think
A full breakdown of why Auckland is on life support — and what smart Kiwis are doing about it
This episode is a public wake-up call and a strategic roadmap for NZ property investors tired of watching politicians burn their rates on stupidity.
If you’ve ever asked,
“What happened to Auckland?”
This is your answer.
