What's the noise disturbance like? Do you notice it?
Was your house cheaper than others in the area?
Is the easy access to transport the reason you bought there?

If you can answer any of those questions, we'd love to hear from you. Please leave a comment or email homed@stuff.co.nz with your name and details. Have a great day!

Happy Monday neighbours,

Canterbury’s newest motorway will give residents more “choices” in how they travel, Transport Minister Michael Wood says.

Locals were invited to travel by cycle and foot along the new Christchurch Northern Corridor on Saturday.

The $290 million motorway connects St Albans to State Highway 1 and the Waimakariri district and bypasses the residential suburbs of Belfast, Northwood and Redwood to ease congestion on Main North Rd.

Have you checked out the new motorway yet? Do you think it will be a positive change for Christchurch?

Open Homes: A necessary nightmare

Kylie Klein Nixon Reporter from Homed

So, I spent a weekend hitting the open homes and seeing what it's like to try to buy as a solo person. Folks, it's tough out there... As an older, single person, it's really tough. Take a look at how I found "the churn" and let me know how it compares to your experience.

House to Rent (long term)

Lynda from Kaiapoi

Hiya neighbours. We are looking for a two or three-bedroom house to rent in Kaiapoi. We would require something long term (say 5-6 years) and a place with a double garage would be handy. A garden would be nice. We are an older couple with no pets and we don't smoke, my partner works part-time … View moreHiya neighbours. We are looking for a two or three-bedroom house to rent in Kaiapoi. We would require something long term (say 5-6 years) and a place with a double garage would be handy. A garden would be nice. We are an older couple with no pets and we don't smoke, my partner works part-time and I have a small quiet business. Something that becomes available to rent anytime from December to late February 2021 is good. We have excellent references. Hope someone can help. Thanks, Lynda W.
