Six tips to help you with your journey on the property ladder.

Six tips to help you with your journey on the property ladder.
1. DECIDE WHAT YOUR LOOKING FOR
Before selling, figure out what your next steps are going to be. Are you upsizing or downsizing? Are you aiming to become mortgage-free? Or do you have pre-approval on a new loan? Then you can start investigating the number of homes in your search area that fit the bill and how much they may cost you.
2. PURPOSE
Why are you considering a move? Are you looking for a larger, long-term family home? Are you willing to sacrifice a longer commute time for a better lifestyle? Or are you looking for a property to invest in, with a good capital gain forecast? A long-term plan vs a short-term investment will each paint a different picture.
3. PREPARE FOR THE FUTURE
It’s important to think ahead when buying a home – around seven years is a good benchmark. Your kids will become teens, your teens will leave home (or not) or your parents may need to move in as they grow older. Ask yourself “will this home still work for me in seven years’ time?”.
4. EMPLOYMENT
Factor in your current commute times and travel costs, but also think down the line. For example, right now you may be a young couple both working full time, but are you preparing to start a family? If one person will stay home with the child, it makes sense to purchase a home closer to the other person’s office.
5. DO YOUR DUE DILIGENCE
Just like a first-time buyer, it’s important to do your due diligence. That means the usual LIMs and building reports, but should also include things like a meth test. Make good use of your real estate agent – they are a wealth of knowledge not only about the home, but the local area.
6. KEEP AN EYE ON THE MARKET
Your property journey doesn’t end once you’ve signed on the dotted line and moved into your new place. For most New Zealanders, a home is the biggest investment made in a lifetime and, in many cases, it’s relied upon to help fund retirement. So, like any big investment, it’s a good idea to keep an eye on trends or changes in the market. The realestate.co.nz New Zealand Property Report or REINZ sales data are two handy sources of information.

Congratulations Korokoro! Our suburb of the week last week
Well done to all the Korokoro-weanians? Korokoro-nites? Korokoro-stodians?

Well done to all the Korokoro-weanians? Korokoro-nites? Korokoro-stodians?
Whatever the name, they're an awesome bunch of #waterlovers, which is great to see as this summer is just starting to heat up.
We need to make sure we're looking after our water so it lasts all summer long!
Tell your family and friends who live up Korokoro that they're doing a great job.
One of our favourite tips is to collect water in a rainwater tank. This water is a great way to give your garden a bit of extra love when it's hot, and can be used after an earthquake as emergency water.
What tips will you be doing this week to help your suburb take the prestigious 'Suburb of the Week' title?

Hi I have almost a brand new Ozito Line trimmer for sale.
Pick up from Birchville. I bought this from bunnings earlier in the year for $130.00. We have moved to a new place and I do not need to use line trimmers here.
