House desperately needed.

Debbie from South Dunedin

Hi everyone, we are desperately in need of a 3 bedroom house in the South Dunedin side of town for my daughter her partner and my 3 young granddaughter's. The children are in School and Kindy so would prefer to not have to change them again if possible. My daughter doesn't drive and as her partner will be in full time study she needs to be able to drop off and pick up the girl's on foot so on the flat would obviously be preferred if possible. This poor young family have been living in a motel since the beginning of August as they have had no luck getting a house. Their time is pretty much up to be able to stay at the motel so thing's are obviously extremely desperate as they have no where to go. This young family needs someone to give them a chance to give them a place to call home, they need stability the children need some grass to play on and their little dog needs his family back. There must be someone out there that can help. Please please help my young family 😔

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.

When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
