Does anyone know of any 3 bedroom houses available in or around upperhutt area (for $400 or preferably less) hopefully Pinehaven as my son attends Pinehaven School.

My two children, fiancé and I are looking for a cosy place to set up and call home.

We’ve been living in our current home for 4 years up Winchester Avenue and the owners are wanting to move back in so we are officially on the hunt for a new abode.

We are a quiet family with good references.

Our son is 5 and in school, our daughter is 2 and in daycare and I work from home while my fiancé is in earth works.

If anyone knows of any listings, private rentals or has any ideas to assist us on our search- we’d be forever grateful

Are you prepared for an emergency?

Community Engagement Advisor from Greater Wellington Regional Council

Community Emergency Hubs are places to gather and support each other during and after a disaster like an earthquake. They are opened and run entirely by the community, using their local knowledge, skills and resources to tackle the immediate challenges presented by a disaster.

Te Horo shows us how their Community Emergency Hub has been a great place to get to know your neighbour for a great purpose, to prepare their Hub and know what to do during and after a disaster.

Find out about your local Community Emergency Hub and learn how you and your community can get through together. Find out more
