However, if you are one of the lucky ones, being the owner of your own home grants certain privileges. At Geneva we reward a homeowner’s hard work and good fortune by granting almost guaranteed approval on some of the best loan rates we offer.
Save more on fees and make bulk re-payments against your loan without any penalties. Home renovations, debt consolidation and car purchase loans suddenly make a lot more sense. Contact us today and see how being a homeowner can really help you.

Hi,
I'm looking for a bookshelf ~20cm deep and not taller than 150cm.
It can be as wide as a metre or more.
If you have one surplus to requirements, lets talk.
Cheers,
Nick.

Bring a can of food into your local Resene owned ColorShop and you can swap it for a Resene testpot*!
Every can of food you donate means you save on your testpot purchase (save up to $5.60 on an 80ml testpot) while also helping provide disadvantaged Kiwis with food parcels when they need them most.
We'll donate every item you bring in to The Salvation Army local foodbanks and other community foodbanks.
So start gathering up those cans and bring them into your local Resene owned ColorShop.

And it turns out quite a lot of us have someone close to us who rides (in fact, 48% of Neighbourly members!)
If you worry about their safety, there is something you can do: encourage them to take Ride Forever coaching, provided (and heavily subsidised) by ACC. It's delivered by experts and it works, as Simon Gotlieb's story shows. Neighbourly members can book a FREE Ride Forever course before 31 March using promo code NEIGH18 over here.

When there's heavy rainfall, like after cyclone Gita yesterday, lots of water can end up in the wastewater network (instead of travelling through the stormwater network). This means our wastewater pump stations and treatment plants are not able to cope with the extra volume of wastewater.
… View moreWhen there's heavy rainfall, like after cyclone Gita yesterday, lots of water can end up in the wastewater network (instead of travelling through the stormwater network). This means our wastewater pump stations and treatment plants are not able to cope with the extra volume of wastewater.
On 20 February 2018, some water bypassed the Porirua treatment plant, only receiving partial treatment with UV light, before being discharged from a pipe at Rukutane Point in Titahi Bay. There were also overflows into the Porirua harbour and near Plimmerton.
We always recommend you do not swim in harbours and rivers following heavy rainfalls, for at least 48 hours.
Please note the following:
- Regional Public Health recommends no swimming in the affected area.
- Health Warning signs will be posted around Titahi Bay.
