Welcome to the newest addition in the Stuff family
Hey Waikato, we wanted to tell you about our new Homed publication which replaces the Waikato Times property section - our aim is to connect with all Kiwis and their homeownership journey. Whether they’re renting or buying, dreaming or doing-up, getting on the ladder or scaling the heights of the property market, Homed will be the place Kiwis always come back to for intelligence, insight and inspiration for their current homes and to discover their future homes.
You can find our flash new weekly gloss publication in bins/stands in and around Waikato and inside our Saturday Waikato Times.
Our first Home of The Week is located in Horsham Downs and marketed by Kristen Gould from Lugtons, the choice of location is absolutely inspired as it snuggles up to the countryside. Click on the link to find out more www.neighbourly.co.nz...

-
23.5% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
15.9% ... It is complicated
