Selling your house? $500 off commission costs!

Cathryn from Spreydon

If you're selling your home and looking at Mike Pero for it, the company gave everyone vouchers at the Americas Cup fundraiser tonight for $500 off the commission cost of a real estate agent - as well as a $500 donation to Pleasant Point Yacht Club which was destroyed in the quakes. I'm not planning on selling my place any time soon, but if anyone is, this voucher might be very useful for saving yourself half a thousand! Let me know if you want to use it and I can arrange to pass it on to you 🙂

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
