Description
Looking for a flexible, purpose-driven business that delivers both impact and profit? This exceptional student accommodation provider could be your next smart move.
This home-based homestay accommodation business has become a vital link between international students and host families in New Zealand. Operating primarily in Auckland, it serves both secondary and tertiary education sectors—a rare dual-market focus that sets it apart in a niche industry.
With established contracts and a solid reputation among educational institutions, this business supports hundreds of students annually. Its services are increasingly sought after, particularly by secondary schools outsourcing homestay coordination. A recent government accommodation contract has further diversified revenue streams and strengthened the business’s market position.
Key business highlights:
Niche dual-market focus (secondary and tertiary sectors)
Home-based and relocatable model with minimal overhead
Strong institutional contracts and school partnerships
Minimal owner input—true passive income potential
Skilled and flexible team in place, including an operations manager
Recent government contract adds service diversity and credibility
Resilient, post-COVID rebound with renewed market demand
Significant expansion potential into Wellington and the South Island
The current owner is strategically involved, dedicating only 5–10 minutes daily to bank transactions and a weekly meeting with the operations manager. This semi-passive structure is ideal for an investor, someone with educational sector insights, or an entrepreneur seeking a high-reliability, low-input business. The operation is fully supported by a skilled team, making it perfect for buyers seeking flexibility without compromising on performance.
This is a rare chance to acquire a streamlined, values-led business with strong margins, meaningful purpose, and real growth potential. With long-term contracts, trusted relationships, and a model ready for expansion, it's the ideal opportunity for a buyer looking to step into a stable, respected enterprise. Don’t miss out on owning a business that delivers both personal satisfaction and professional reward.
