Hi neighbours, some temporary speed reductions around Christchurch schools will remain for now, despite signalled changes from the new Government.

The Christchurch City Council has been told that deadlines and targets for reviewing speed limits have been revoked, but parts of an interim multimillion-dollar programme are going ahead because the work is already under contract.

However, with new rules foreshadowed, the council may find itself needing to rip up and replace the road signs with a more expensive option.

Preparing Your Home For Sale

For many people, the thought of downsizing and moving to a new house can be pretty daunting, especially if you’ve lived in the family home for the last 20 to 30 years. But if you take the plunge, it can open the door for you to truly expand your life.

There are two things to consider when you’ve decided to sell up – how to present your home so it’s appealing to buyers and packing up your home for the physical move.

Before you jump into renovations to make the place look shiny and new, think carefully about the value they will add to the house and whether you’ll recover that cost in the sale price. Renovations can be costly, stressful and time-consuming, so they’re only worth making if they’ll add significant value to your house sale.
