First home buyer burned by sunset clause finally secures dream house in Lower Hutt
Remember Bailey Ross, the first time buyer who missed out on the property she'd been saving since she was 16 to own because of a sunset clause? Well, great news! She's secured a home in Lower Hutt.
I caught up with Bailey for an episode of First Rung, our podcast for first time buyers. She ended up giving me a bit of a masterclass in tenacity and not giving up on your home owning dreams.
Find out how Bailey found her first home, and what it means to her after such a big let down.

Hawke's Bay Show 2025
Something for you to consider for next year. There needs to be a lot more entries in the show as it was quite disappointing to see how few there were this year. Townies can enter these competitions, it's not just for country folk. It costs $5 for one entry, and you get a free ticket to the Show (worth $16) and a free carpark, as well as the chance of winning a prize. www.hbap.co.nz...
