Poll: How do you feel about the revaluation and its impact on your house?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

A revaluation shaved $215,000 off the capital value of the Smiths’ home and has them worried it could drag down the price they eventually sell for.

Homes around the city were recently revalued for rating purposes and Hamilton City Council announced an average drop of 12% between September 2021 and September 2024, following house price drops over the same period.

Got more greens than you know what to do with? 🥦🌱🥕

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Whether it’s a courgette takeover or a feijoa frenzy, don’t let those garden gems go to waste!

Our suggestion to you: Did you know you can grate and freeze excess courgettes to use in chocolate cake later? It sounds a bit dodgy, but it makes the cake incredibly moist ... and hey, it counts as a serving of veg, right? 🍫

I have two faces, but show you only one.
I once had guests, but now have none.
I’m rarely bloody and seldom blue.
I’m often promised and sometimes new
