Rolleston has expanded rapidly in the past 10 years due to its land stability and Selwyn District Council’s positive response to the demand for building consents. The Selwyn District continues to expand at a 15% growth rate. House and land valuations in the area have risen faster than any other area in the South Island. Consequently, demand for these affordable Rolleston sections is very high in the Branthwaite subdivision. Christchurch is expanding west and the introduction of the inland ports will ensure Rolleston’s continued growth.
