How does bank assess your borrowing?

Saneel from Mount Roskill

Read our latest blog on test rate also known as Sensitivity Servicing Rate (SSR).

The current interest rate environment does impact the test rates, the lenders would be quick to push the rates, which can impact your borrowing power.

Check out the blog here: skfg.co.nz...

⚠️ Some of the lenders have pushed up short to medium fixed term rates
⚠️ Protect yourself and your family so that financial strain is avoided. If you have existing insurance cover, well done, take some time to check whether it is adequate.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
