Some might say that allowing tenants to have pets means that they'll stay longer and treat your house like a home. Do you think changes should be made to ensure more pet-friendly rentals are available?

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

Do you know what a Conditional Agreement means?
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!
