Porirua suburb approaching $1million mark
Porirua’s median property prices have risen by 49 per cent since 2017.
This is about double the rate for Wellington City, higher than Hutt, and the red hot Kāpiti Coast. It smashes Auckland, Christchurch and the overall national figures. Porirua’s mayor Anita Baker says the word ‘affordable’ no longer has any meaning when it comes to housing – and the city was not far away from a million-dollar median value for its homes.
This year the Porirua suburb of Aotea hit $1m ($958,000 in 2019) as its median house price. Whitby has a median of $814,000 ($760,000 in 2019), while Cannons Creek sits at $486,000 ($413,000 in 2019) and Waitangirua $465,000 ($399,000 in 2019).
In Wellington City the likes of Seatoun had a median value of about $1.5m, Kelburn $1.3m while Newlands was $714,000.

Some Choice News!
Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
On the hunt for a childhood book
Hi guys,
I'm currently trying very hard to find this book and I can't seem to find it locally in stores. I was hoping one of you might have an old copy you weren't in need of anymore 🤞 i would be incredibly grateful 👌😊
