Hi team! Thank you so much for your support of First Rung, our first podcast!
The launch last week went even better than we'd hoped. I'm over the moon.
I thought I'd drop by to let you know this week's episode, Location, Location, Location, is out now.
Just like the first one, it's packed with tips, advice and anecdotes from experts and home owners on every aspect of buying your first home. It also comes with a chance to win a $500 Resene prize pack.
In episode 2, we talk to a first time buyer who moved from one end of the country to the other for a chance to get on the ladder, hear about apartments as a viable first home option and an expert gives us some tips on how to choose the right lawyer.
We all know buying a home is one of the toughest, most daunting things we might ever do as adults, so it doesn't hurt to get some expert advice and support. That's what we wanted to give you with First Rung.
Give episode 2 a listen and let us know what you think - and I hope you're all in to win that crackin' prize pack!

Residents of a sleepy Christchurch neighbourhood fear new connecting roads will make it a busy commuter route.

The small subdivision of Cameo Grove lies in northeast Christchurch, near Burwood Hospital. A street there, also called Cameo Grove, is at present split into east and west.

In consultation with the Christchurch City Council, Prestons Park developer CDL Land plans to connect the two parts of the street and join both to Katrine Drive to the north.

Residents in the cul-de-sac say connecting the roads will make the area a shortcut for commuters using the busy Mairehau and Burwood roads.
