About 40% of the 6.5 million tyres Kiwis use every year are recycled, repurposed, or used as tyre-derived fuel. But the rest end up in landfills, stockpiled or dumped.

The good news is now there’s an easy solution to all that tyre waste. It’s called Tyrewise and is New Zealand’s first national tyre recycling scheme.

Tyrewise ensures that tyres in Aotearoa New Zealand are recycled or repurposed properly, saving millions from going to the landfill.

With a significant increase in property listings, the rise in the total number of properties sold, and an increase in the median sale price, some buyers are holding out for the ‘right’ property while others are getting ‘into the market’ before competition rises as investors return.

This buoyancy is a positive sign that we haven’t seen for a while.

(source: REINZ February Property Report)

We are looking at the back of the government’s 100-day plan and the changes to the bright line test back to two years and the latest reintroduction of interest deductibility on investment properties for landlords

REINZ Chief Executive Jen Baird says with the combination of high listing numbers, elevated stock and shifts in the median sale price we are seeing increased activity.

Tauranga City Median Price
Feb-24 $901,500
Jan-24 $915,000

Tauranga City Sales
Feb-24. 207
Jan-24. 119
Feb-23. 170
