In the past the Housing Corporation, and its replacement Housing New Zealand, have been prepared to finance the building of dwellings on Māori land by taking security over the house, provided that the borrower can obtain a licence to occupy from the owners or trustees, where the land is held in trust, for a term of at least 21 years.
The ‘residue’ section is land that has always been part of the Crown Grant, but has been occupied by the Council.
Occupation orders An occupation order allows people to build houses on Māori freehold and general land owned by Māori.
Alienation is when landowners grant certain rights of their land to another person. For example, selling land gives the new owner the ownership rights; leasing land gives the lessee a limited right to occupy land in return for payment of rent (and other conditions); mortgaging land gives the mortgagee the right to sell the land if the mortgage is not repaid (refer to section 4 of Te Ture Whenua Māori Act 1993).
