PET FRIENDLY LONGTERM RENTAL REQUIRED

Marie from Howick

ITS ALL ABOUT THE DOGS.

Sadly, our current rental property of 6 years has just been sold for development and so we need to find a new rental property asap.

If you are looking for long term tenants, KEYWORD LONGTERM, not up and coming developments please not looking to move again any time soon if we can help it.

3/4 bedrooms, garage, pet friendly is what we need anything considered, but please don't assume because we have dogs, we don't have standards I like a clean house and a clean yard, when I rent, I only improve standards I don't lower them.
We are well kept and so are our pets.
We are invested in keeping a tidy home, very handy around the house.
Don't mind yard work if needed don't mind minor fix ups but must be livable condition.

Example , Went to a house viewing today and was shocked at the disgusting filthy conditions of the property, would have been a very tidy house at 1 time but sadly due to lack of care the property was in very poor conditions, smelt like a dirty toilet, definitely looked much the same I could have worked with the yard and even that was a huge ask but after viewing the inside I pity the poor person who ends up there.
Sadly, so many desperate people were willing to take it in that condition.

Please if you have a long-term pet friendly property up and coming that you think might be suitable look forward to hearing from you.
Thanks Marie

Poll: As a customer, what do you think about automation?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Press investigates the growing reliance on your unpaid labour.

Automation (or the “unpaid shift”) is often described as efficient ... but it tends to benefit employers more than consumers.

We want to know: What do you think about automation?
Are you for, or against?

Time to Tickle Your Thinker 🧠

The Riddler from The Neighbourly Riddler

If a zookeeper had 100 pairs of animals in her zoo, and two pairs of babies are born for each one of the original animals, then (sadly) 23 animals don’t survive, how many animals do you have left in total?

Here's what you need to know before making an offer on a house

Hira Siddiqui from Citizens Advice Bureau Pakuranga/Eastern Manukau

🏠 What is the neighbourhood like?
Familiarise yourself with the neighbourhood, to check accessibility to public transport, schools and shops. Visit the street at different times of day, to find out how quiet or noisy it gets. Check with the local council whether they know of any future developments in the area that could increase noise or traffic.
🏠 How much are the rates and insurance?
Do a property search on the local council’s website to see what the rates are.
You can also get quotes from insurers to find out what it might cost to insure it.
Check whether the homeowner is paying off the cost of installing insulation or heating units through their rates, because you will inherit that debt if you buy the house.
🏠 For a unit title, check the pre-contract disclosure
If the property is on a unit title development (for example, an apartment), ask to see the pre-contract disclosure. This is basic information about the unit and the unit title development.
🏠 Get a LIM (Land Information Memorandum) report
A LIM report tells you everything the local council knows about the land and the buildings, for example, what building consents and code compliance certificates they have issued for work done on the property.
🏠 Pre-purchase building inspection
Get an independent building inspector to examine the house thoroughly and look for potential problems with weather-tightness, wiring, plumbing or the foundations (piles).
Ask them to check for features that might make maintenance more difficult. For example, some types of wall claddings need specialist knowledge to maintain, access to the gutters might not be straightforward, and retaining walls can be expensive to repair.
🏠 Check the property title
Ask a lawyer or conveyancer to check the property title for things like easements. For example, an easement might allow a neighbour to access part of the property. The property title should also confirm the property boundary.
