Hi! I'm so excited to finally be sharing a project our team has been working on for a while now: First Rung, our first podcast!
First Rung is packed with tips, advice and anecdotes from experts and home owners on every aspect of buying your first home - it also comes with a chance to win a $500 Resene prize pack.
Over six, bite sized episodes, we cover everything from saving that deposit, to sunset clauses, to how to get your newly purchased home ready to move into.
We'll also introduce you to ordinary Kiwis, just like you, who have navigated the choppy waters of home buying in NZ and made it onto that first rung - and pick their brains for how they did it.
We all know buying a home is one of the toughest, most daunting things we might ever do as adults, so it doesn't hurt to get some expert advice and support. That's what we wanted to give you with First Rung.
So give it a listen and let us know what you think - and be in to win that mint Resene prize pack. I can't enter and I'm well jealous!

After being hit by COVID (twice!) the Student Stars concert is back on again - this time on Sunday 18th October at 3 pm in the Theatre Royal.
But this does mean the 12 performers have had extra time to rehearse. Where else can you hear 12 top student musicians and two orchestras? The Taranaki Symphony Orchestra and the Taranaki Youth Orchestra have combined for this concert which will be an exciting and fantastic concert - great for the whole family.
For those who bought tickets for the previous postponed concert, your tickets and seats are still valid for the 18th. Otherwise tickets are still available from Ticketek (either at the box office or on-line).
