Among the politicians with the largest property portfolios is Labour MP and former Speaker Adrian Rurawhe. According to the 2025 register, he jointly owns a family home in Whangaehu and has interests in a large number of Māori land blocks.
He has interests in 26 Māori land blocks in the Aotea district, one block in Tai Tokerau, two in Tākitimu, 11 in Waipounamu and interests in a Waipū general land block at Rātana Paa.
National’s Carlos Cheung jointly owns a number of properties. He jointly owns five rental properties in Auckland, as well as a family home there and another in Wellington.
Act MP Parmjeet Parmar is another with a large portfolio. The register lists her as owning two residential rental properties, four residential rental town houses, a family home (owned by a trust) and a commercial property, all in Auckland.
Her colleague Todd Stephenson jointly owns a family home in Queenstown as well as two apartments in Wellington plus two apartments in Australia, one in Sydney and one in Geelong. He also has an apartment held in trust in Wellington and a rental property held in trust in Te Ānau.
Other MPs also have property interests overseas. For example, Labour’s Camilla Belich lists a former family home (jointly owned leasehold property) in London, National’s Todd McClay has a home in Belgium, National MP Mark Mitchell has a holiday house in Bali, National MP Maureen Pugh has a timeshare in New South Wales, Labour MP Jenny Salesa has two acres of lands on a 99-year lease in Tonga, and Labour MP Ayesha Verrall has a jointly owned family property in the Maldives. Green MP Ricardo Menendez March previously listed a family home in Tijuana, Mexico, but that’s dropped off his 2025 list.
The point of the register of pecuniary interests is to provide transparency about MPs’ financial interests and strengthen public trust and confidence in the parliamentary process and decision making.
It lists a wide range of interests, including MPs’ interests in businesses, gifts they have received, payments to them for participating in other activities, and any debts they have.
For example, the register shows the Prime Minister was given two wristwatches (one at the Nato Summit and one from Thailand’s Prime Minister), NZ First’s Mark Patterson has interests in a Bitcoin Trust ETF through iShares, and National’s Stuart Smith has interests in a very long list of businesses.
A large number of MPs got corporate tickets to sporting events, concerts and hunting trips, as well as many helicopter rides.
