What Is Your Flat Bush Home Worth?
Flat Bush is the largest planned residential development undertaken in Auckland in recent decades, built out from farmland into a substantial suburb over the past twenty years. It is young and fast-growing, and its housing stock is unlike anywhere else in the area — almost all of it built since 2000.

- Build quality and the builder, which varies considerably across the stages of development and is not visible in council records
- Access is by bus to Botany and Manukau, and by road via Ormiston Road and Te Irirangi Drive.
- Schools nearby include Ormiston Senior College and Ormiston Junior College
