Poll: Is there a spot like this that has been bothering you?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

A mystery sprayer has taken it into their own hands to highlight the state of a Hamilton road.

Obviously frustrated by Te Rapa Road’s condition, they’ve grabbed the yellow spray paint.

Poll: Have you ever had a Healthy Homes inspection done where you live?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

Conflicting Healthy Homes inspection reports are raising concerns about the consistency of standards meant to ensure rental properties are safe and liveable.

In one recent case, a Cambridge rental property underwent two inspections within a week, with significantly different outcomes. The first, arranged by tenant Sara Lewis, identified multiple issues including mould, vermin, and ventilation concerns. A second inspection, arranged by property managers Harcourts, just six days later, found little to criticise.
