New Government Website - Settled.
Hi neighbours,
This week the REAA made some subtle changes to its name, now called REA and launched a new website www.settled.govt.nz...
Having a quick read of settled this morning, there is a heap of a useful information set out in a user-friendly way on buying and selling property in NZ. It covers selling with an agent and selling privately.
Check out the new site at the link below and enjoy your Art Deco weekend.
PS: The Puketapu Auction and Fair is on Sunday 25th February at the Puketapu Lake. It's going to be a great day with something for everyone with over 70 stall holders!

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
