Dog... 🐶

Kristina from Welcome Bay

I just want to notify people who walk in Johnson Reserve that if they see a little "mongrel dog", very sweet, grey-black and grey around her nose with the registration number 01506 (she has a collar around her neck) and her name is Lyndy, to contact the council. They know who she is. This dog was following us home when we went for a walk yesterday. She was asking for help. I was looking around for the owner, but she was on her own. I phoned the council a.s.a I got home and they came to pick her up. They said she has been following people before and know this dog and the owner. Unfortunately, the owner of this dog is not very responsible and let the poor thing run around without supervision. I told the council that this person need a good talking to (I could do it myself) but they would not tell me who the dog belong to. I wouldn' t be abuse to him/her, just have a friendly chat about the dog and how to be a responsible dog owner. People who can't look after their pets should not be allowed to have them. I rang the council this morning to enquire about the dog and they said they hadn't been able to get hold of the owner yet. I will keep inquiring since I'm concerned about the dog's welfare. If he/she gets the dog back it could end up in J.R again. So this is just to let people know. Cheers. 🙂

Buying a home in Tauranga isn't just a transaction....

Matt from Matt Wineera - Thats Real Estate with Matt Wineera

Buying a home in Tauranga isn't just a transaction; it's a chapter in your story.
Buying a home is a major decision, and it's crucial to figure out your must-haves before diving into the process.

Before hitting up the websites, jot down your deal-breakers:
* Pick your preferred suburbs.
* Consider the vibe of neighbouring areas.
* Think about local schools.
* Check out the proximity to shops, sports, cafes, and restaurants.
* List your dream home features.
* Decide on the importance of a garden or balcony.
* Determine the number of bedrooms you need.
* Consider if a garage is a necessity.
* Ensure your wishlist aligns with your budget.

Now, let's talk money:

Deposit:
Decide how much upfront cash you're comfortable putting down to secure your dream home. Generally, a larger deposit increases your chances of getting a loan, but it depends on your lender and financial situation.
First-time buyers might qualify for government assistance.

Other Costs:
While property inspection reports aren't mandatory, it's wise to get one to uncover potential hidden costs. Choose an inspector with professional indemnity insurance who follows the New Zealand Property Inspection Standards.

Once you've sealed the deal on your new home, take a breather—you've earned it!

Together, let's turn the key to a future filled with endless possibilities! 🌟🔑
