Important changes to Tenancy notice periods
Here are some important points to note for changes to Tenancies:
• A tenant can now end their periodic tenancy with just 21 days' notice, down from the previous 28 days
• A landlord can terminate a periodic tenancy by providing the tenant with 90 days' notice without needing to give a reason. This is referred to as a 'no cause' termination, whereas previously, a lawful reason was required
• A landlord can give 42 days' notice to end a tenancy if they or a family
member needs to occupy the property, or if the property is being sold and vacant possession is necessary. This is a change from the previous notice periods of 63 and 90 days, respectively
• Fixed-term tenancies will automatically convert to periodic tenancies once the term expires, unless they are ended, extended, or renewed. For fixed-term tenancies concluding on or after 1 May 2025, either the landlord or tenant can terminate the fixed-term tenancy without providing a reason by giving notice between 90 and 21 days before the fixed term concludes, whereas previously only the tenant could do so

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?
