House needed

Julie Neighbourly Lead from Havelock North

Hi neighbours
We are still looking for a house to rent, long term, by December.
If you know of, or have, a 2 plus bedroom, with a garage, in the HNHS zone, please let me know. I’m looking for a place for me, my teen son and our small, very house trained cat.
I can’t afford a lot (certainly not the crazy rents investors are asking), but I can do most maintenance myself, and I’m happy with a compliant fireplace.
We’ve been looking for nearly 2 years already, with no luck, and time is not on our side.
Even if it’s just for a year, to give us a chance to find something permanent, or as permanent as living in someone else’s house can be.
