looking for 2 brm house for rent

Sally from Nawton

I am a semi retired single mature lady living with my furr babies looking for a 2 brm house for rent. I had back surgery 2 yrs ago and has long term limitation abilities as in standing,walking ,climbing up stairs and high risk of falls. I am living in a rental house for the last 8yrs and now the owners of the property has decided to sell the house.I was given notice to vacate the house by October. Based on my limitations in doing certain tasks and keeping my house a safe place , the house that I am looking for need to have the following requirements or design.
They are :
No stairs/No steps
One level
Shower (No shower in bath) I had several falls in the bath in the past
Low maintenance garden or courtyard
Single access internal garage- so will be easy for me to walk into the house in carrying laundry or shopping
Pets friendly as my cats are house trained and indoor cats (3)
I have always paid my rent on time over the years of living in rental property. I can still drive. I do my best to keep the house clean and I do get home help from the hospital once a week.
I am willing to pay $400 - $550 per week .
I don't have much time and need to move out by mid October.
Please if anyone knows of rental house with the above requirements or have house for rent, please contact me at
0212542724 (Sally)

What do you think will change once Hamilton overtakes the capital?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

How long it’ll take depends on who you ask and you can measure it in years, elections, or Rugby world cups.

But Hamilton City will eventually be home to more people than Wellington City - likely in somewhere between 24 or 34 years according to Statistics NZ and Waikato University.

What do you think will change once Hamilton overtakes the capital? Tell us your reasons in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
