Hi everyone,

My tiny house is up for sale!

My girl is 7.2m long, 2.4m wide, and 3.6m from the ground to the highest point. She's completely weather proof and has a warrant of fitness and registration. Its a shell on the inside- a nice wee project for someone with time and 15-20k to complete her. The ply you see on the floor is for the ceiling. Some other materials included is a bathroom vanity, a toilet seat and diverter (to make your own composting toilet), 'Earthwool' ceiling and wall insulation, and 10 flushboxes for the wiring stage.

The aluminium joinery is new and single-glazed, made by Contour. The bathroom window is frosted, the kitchen window is bi-fold, and the doors open to the outside of the house.

Located in Moutere, Tasman.

Price: $29,000

Chlorination of the Richmond water supply may work out cheaper than keeping it free of the chemical, according to Tasman District Council.

A report states that "chlorination of the Richmond water supply is an effective way to prevent re-contamination of the network. Turning the supply on and off results in significant staff and contractor costs and resourcing issues".

What do you think? Is this an effective way to manage water contamination risks?

It's true that you agreed to a legally binding contract as soon as you drove into the parking lot. Thankfully, New Zealand law protects consumers from the exploitative clauses that corporates love to slip in the fine print.

Under contract law, parking companies can only claim for "the actual and reasonable costs they incurred". Charging $65 for a short overstay in an empty carpark is as far from reasonable as you can get.
