"Hi there my name is Vader aka Vaddie. I came into SPCA under unfortunate circumstances and have been under the care of the Veterinarian and Canine Team. I am now ready for my forever home.
It has taken a bit of time for me to come out of my shell and learn to trust people but once to do I am very loving and loyal. I would love quiet, predictable home with someone around for parts or all of the day as I am not comfortable with being left alone and thrive with company. I would love a home that enjoys going for walks and adventures but at the same understands that I am not always comfortable around the hustle and bustle of city life, I can be a very sensitive soul. I do however, have a playful side. I love playing with toys."

The Snapper pilot will begin in October on the Johnsonville Rail Line, subject to the final completion of commercial negotiations.
Since its launch in 2008, Snapper cards have been used for the overwhelming majority of bus trips in the capital.
Wellington was originally meant to add card payments to trains back in 2015, under a Waka Kotahi plan to expand Auckland’s AT HOP card to the capital.

I always get asked what questions should I ask when choosing a Property Manager, so I thought I would put together each week a snippet of two questions and answers from "Personal Property Management" perspective.

Part 1 of 6

1) Does the agency have a dedicated Property Management Department?

PPM answer: We specialise in Property Management. It’s our passion. We don’t have any other side areas we just focus on Property Management and our point of difference is one person handles all aspects of the rental from the owner to the property and the tenancy.


2) Are you a real estate investor yourself?
PPM answer: I own my own property in Karori and have done extensive renovations to make it into a 4-bedroom plus in the progress of turning the rumpus room into a one-bedroom flat - underneath our current house. I have also helped my father with his 7 rentals ever since I was young – it's been like a family business. My goal this year is to buy my first rental investment.

If you have any questions about your rental or need some advice please don't hesitate to call Andrew 0274 888 933 PPM
