"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."

How to Maintain and Care for your Wallcoverings

So, you’ve finally chosen that fabulous wallpaper to showcase your style but how do you best look after it to keep it looking fresh and clean?

Many a foreign object can flick onto the surface of the wallpapers in your home that can range from food to crayon to fly spray, the list goes on. Like any textile, wallpapers do need a little bit of love every now and then, a regular wipe down with a clean cloth should keep dust and marks at bay however there are times when there may be the need for a more deeper clean.

To better understand how to care for your wallcoverings we need to first understand the different types of wallpaper on the market and their cleaning durability. The main three classifications are:

1. Washable: Coated papers (light weight vinyl) would fall under this category. A mild detergent and water can be used to occasionally wipe surface of wallcovering. Not suitable for high traffic areas due to light cleaning and inability to remove stains or contaminants without damage.

2. Scrubbable: Generally heavy vinyl’s, these types of wallcoverings are suited to higher traffic areas as they can withstand scrubbing to remove stains and dirt more effectively.

3. Spongeable: The most delicate of the three methods with wall coverings primarily used for decorative effect (uncoated). Best maintained by using a dry clean sponge/eraser or with a lightly dampened cloth and avoiding heavy water use.

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
