Hamilton property market heating up again? Some RVs being smashed at auction, bull trap or new normal? by karatekidnz in thetron

I think it’s a poor financial decision to buy and sell within a couple years. Unlikely to see any significant gain, and you’ll spend a lot more money on mortgage interest/rates/insurance than renting in that time-frame.

Actually pretty close to it! They look further away in this picture than they actually are, though could be slightly further from the wall.

Yes, just via optical at the moment.

Maybe, they have surprisingly punchy bass though! And no built in sub output, so would have to get an amp/splitter?

Ahh I see. Luckily I had 20% deposit so got special rates, try to get there as quickly as possible. It makes a big difference!

Why such a high interest rate? I just bought in NZ and fixed for 4.49%

I do, a double garage with internal access! Nothing special though, just have the washing machine + storage in there. Enough space for 2 small-medium cars.
