Upskilll at any stage of your career

Competenz

Print specialist Tracy Reynolds had been working at NZ Post as a print operator for 13 years before she decided to embark on studying towards an NZ Diploma of Print Industry Management Level 5, a qualification she has now completed.

“I’m not the normal age student!” she laughs. “I knew it would be a lot of work, but I was assured that I would have plenty of support from the NZ Post team and I did feel I needed a challenge at the time. Given the current climate right now with COVID-19, I knew the qualification would be an advantage if I was to take another path within NZ Post.”

Tracy has just been named as the Diploma of Print Management Student of the Year at the recent national Pride in Print awards, an honour she says was “absolutely blown away” to receive.

Upskilling is for everyone - you don't need to be new to your industry to gain a qualification and advance in your career!
Tracy is a perfect example of this.

Do you know what a Conditional Agreement means?

Matt from Matt Wineera - Thats Real Estate with Matt Wineera

Do you know what a Conditional Agreement means?
A conditional agreement is an agreement for the Sale & Purchase of real estate and is a legally binding agreement, but it is subject to certain conditions being satisfied.

These might relate to:
1️⃣ the purchaser arranging suitable finance to complete the purchase,

2️⃣ receipt of a satisfactory builder’s report and/or valuer’s report;

3️⃣ receipt of a satisfactory Land Information Memorandum (LIM);

4️⃣ or the purchaser’s solicitor approving the title to the property.

The Sale & Purchase agreement may also have conditions that require the seller to do something by a certain date.

Once all the conditions are satisfied the agreement becomes unconditional.

Whether you're the savvy buyer or the strategic seller, remember the golden rule: legal advice is your guiding light. 🌟 Legal advice ensures the conditions are crystal clear, paving the way for your seamless real estate journey!

So, next time you're navigating your real estate journey of property transactions, remember: knowledge is power, and legal advice is your compass!💡

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
