Hi team! Thank you so much for your support of First Rung, our first podcast!
The launch last week went even better than we'd hoped. I'm over the moon.
I thought I'd drop by to let you know this week's episode, Location, Location, Location, is out now.
Just like the first one, it's packed with tips, advice and anecdotes from experts and home owners on every aspect of buying your first home. It also comes with a chance to win a $500 Resene prize pack.
In episode 2, we talk to a first time buyer who moved from one end of the country to the other for a chance to get on the ladder, hear about apartments as a viable first home option and an expert gives us some tips on how to choose the right lawyer.
We all know buying a home is one of the toughest, most daunting things we might ever do as adults, so it doesn't hurt to get some expert advice and support. That's what we wanted to give you with First Rung.
Give episode 2 a listen and let us know what you think - and I hope you're all in to win that crackin' prize pack!

Because I for one, have not managed to meet/see any Candidates so far! Nor hear any of their views, policies, messages etc. - Who are these people? Last time in 2017, our 'Daily News', held a well-attended Debate in the Civic Chamber, with the Editor as the M.C.... I was there and it was good. Where is our 'Paper' this year? They keep asking us for our Finances during Covid, but where is their Support NOW when WE NEED IT?
