Award Winning Housing Developments
We are extremely proud of the homes that we build. One of these developments (McLennan) was recently awarded the Australasian Housing Institute Award for the best housing development in New Zealand.
Now an experienced developer with the ability to deliver at scale, CORT is delivering homes that showcase what great affordable housing can be. These homes are attractive, durable and are purpose built to best meet the needs of our tenants. They are designed to blend seamlessly into the neighbourhood and built of materials that will last for the long term.
We Believe in Community Housing
We believe that everyone has a right to a home to call their own. CORT is proud to be part of Aotearoa/New Zealand’s growing and vibrant community housing sector which plays a major role in making this a reality.
Community housing is not about building houses in isolation, it is about building resilient, cohesive and diverse neighbourhoods. To do this we focus on Partnerships with all of the stakeholders required to build great communities and increase housing supply. This includes tenants, whanau, neighbours, support agencies, other community housing providers, the private sector, local councils, and government.
CORT Community Housing (Community of Refuge Trust) is a registered community housing provider in Auckland.

CORT Community Housing now has more than 280 one and two bedroom units which are homes for over 400 people.
