Any suggestions?
Lawrenson is hoping the new establishment can be named in a similar vein to his Claudelands bar, The Roaming Giant.

When he announced it was going to be built, a life-ling resident of the area wrote to the Waikato Times with a story of an elephant that escaped from the circus.

The then 10-year-old chanced upon it in the bush on his way home from school, Lawrenson said.

Safety counts – assessing safety features when buying a car

Enterprise Motor Group Hamilton

If you’re in the process of buying a car you’re probably busy considering all the features and fittings that you’d like to invest in. Are you keen on a bigger engine or fatter tyres? Or perhaps you’re prioritising interior space so you can fit in the kids, the dog, and the weekly shop.

Everyone approaches car buying with their own unique set of priorities. If you haven’t already, it’s worth adding safety to your list. Choosing the safest car you can afford is an investment in your own personal wellbeing and that of your passengers. And because it’s a key part of how insurance companies calculate their rates, it could also save you money.

The attached article highlights what can happen to even the best landlords. Choosing the right tenant, and making sure that all references are checked, is a fundamental service that Hamilton Property Management provides. However, we know that it isn't always the tenant that causes the problem, but also guests and visitors - you can't always tell.
To help reduce the risk of being out of pocket, all properties managed by Hamilton Property Management have a landlord insurance automatically included in the standard fee. This covers unpaid rent, damage to the property and landlord liability. Don't find yourself with huge expenses because you don't have the right property manager.
Call me now to discuss how I can help you reduce the risk of owning a rental property.
