Getting genuinely affordable homes into a sought-after suburb is hard, and Kerepeti did it at scale. Ngāi Tahu Property built 208 homes at Hobsonville Point across two neighbourhoods, Uku and Kerewhenua, in a mix of terraced housing, walk-up apartments and apartments, about half priced below the Auckland median and 30 percent set aside for the Hobsonville Point Axis affordable-homes programme.

RCP came on once the masterplan was approved and ran the project from there, managing the design and infrastructure, the programme, the procurement and the construction contracts as Engineer to the Contract.

The development ran as one master project across two sites, with separate contractors on each. RCP staged and demarcated the work so each site's boundaries were clear, and held one standard of quality across the whole development, especially where the sites met.

Completed as part of Hobsonville Point, Kerepeti added 208 well-built homes to the community, many within reach of buyers priced out elsewhere in Auckland.
