Whether driven by cultural values, financial considerations, or the desire for closer family connections, this way of living is becoming increasingly popular.

Recently, adviceHQ was featured in a Trade Me article by Gill South highlighting the financial and practical benefits of multigenerational living. As more families face the rising cost of living, pooling resources can provide access to larger, more desirable homes while ensuring security for each generation.

adviceHQ specialise in helping families navigate the complexities of financing such arrangements, ensuring that both long-term goals and immediate needs are met.

If your family is considering multigenerational living, reach out to see how we can help you structure your finances and plan for the future.

We’re currently on the search for 40 participants to speak with in front of the camera. We'll be releasing this project across social media in 2025 as 250+ short episodes.

We’re offering a one-off opportunity for regular New Zealanders - an individual and private interview with us for about an hour in mid-November, in a studio in Auckland (with agreed travel and accommodation covered if selected participants reside outside Auckland) and a $250 Prezzy Card as a thank you. We’re encouraging everyone to apply who has stories to tell in the context of the Aotearoa dating scene.

This opportunity is for 18-24 year olds. Please spread the word! Apply or learn more at www.d8talk.nz...

Thank you ❤️‍🔥
