She knows what she's talking about, too. Not only did she smash more than $90k of debt in three years, but in the year since she paid it off, she's saved enough, on top of her Kiwisaver, to pay the deposit on a home of her own.
It wasn't easy, and Tracy would be the first person to tell you that! But it is doable. Check out how, and have a listen to our episode of First Rung about Settlement day, on this link below. It includes some tips from Tracy on setting up a budget to manage your finance when you have a mortgage to pay.

I've always thought of reno blogging as a way to document a difficult process in a fun, relatable way. The benefit? Emotional support and maybe advice from folks following your journey - and maybe a little ego bump from showing off your mad wallpapering skills.

If you're lucky, and good, you might be given a couple of cans of paint from your local hardware store, to help you on the way - but that would be the icing on the tip of the social media cake.
Few of us would have the energy or knowhow to turn their reno into a part time side hustle that's both creatively fulfilling, and engaging.
But that's exactly what Moochstyle's Shayden and Georgia Whipps have done - with some pawsome help from their gorgeous dog Frankie. They've been blogging their Christchurch villa reno since they bought their home and Shayden shared their story with us for the final episode of First Rung, our podcast. A first time homeowner and renovator, Shayden is such an inspiring guy to chat with. He makes you want to jump in and give it go. Check out his story and let us know what you think.

How bad is the homelessness situation in New Zealand now?
A house in Feilding had over 70 people apply to rent it.
I heard yesterday that people were unable to find a Motel in Taupo or Rotorua to stay in as all the Motels are full of the homeless.

A house in Feilding had over 70 people apply to rent it.
I heard yesterday that people were unable to find a Motel in Taupo or Rotorua to stay in as all the Motels are full of the homeless.
I know someone who stayed in a Motel due to homelessnesss. It costs the taxpayers $1,000 a week.
With all the job losses, businesses gone and some people unable to pay mortgages things are only going to get worse.
While Tiny Homes aren't for everyone they would certainly help a lot of people. Why spend all this money on Motels with nothing to show for it at the end? There has to be other alternatives!
