Kia ora neighbours, a West Auckland mum who lost her young son in an accident days before Christmas had to make the “hardest decision” to let him go as doctors sought to save him.

Roxana Harsant’s 2-year-old son Harry had been outside their home in Sunnyvale when the incident occurred on December 22.

Harsant was talking to the mum of one of her older daughter’s friends when Harry reached for the garden hose, which was wrapped round a bench grinder.

When he pulled the hose, he pulled the grinder, and the heavy podium on which it sat, down on himself.

How will the ongoing Covid-19 impact and its recovery affect Auckland House Prices?

Thinking of Selling? Set the Right Price from the Start
With the ongoing Covid-19 crisis becoming part of our day-to-day life, It is crucial to get your property priced correctly right from the start. We have identified extra influences leading to the rise in Auckland house prices.

We factor this into our market valuation report to give you an accurate, current and comparable value of your property based on current market conditions.

Having an accurate property valuation helps you understand the current equity that you have in your property.

You will receive an accurate and customised comparative market analysis of your property with our effective pricing strategy. Even if you have no intention of selling, it’s fun to know what your home is worth if it was listed in the current market.
