1. Wear and tear
This is perhaps the biggest thing homeowners need to know. As a rental, your personal home will experience more wear and tear than it otherwise would if you lived in it. Your garden will probably not look as immaculate as it once did, and your walls and floors may acquire new scuff marks. So, if you can’t shake off your emotional attachment to the property, you may be better off selling it rather than renting it.
2. Location
The location of your home can have a major impact on its rentability and how easy it is to find quality tenants. If you’re close to local amenities like schools, Waikato University, Waikato Hospital or public transport routes, you have a better chance of keeping your property tenanted.
3. Maintenance
If your home is high maintenance - perhaps it has a pool, a large garden, or old appliances - know that you’ll need to keep it maintained to a reasonable condition to meet your obligations as a landlord/owner. This may involve extra ongoing costs, or costs to remedy the amount of maintenance required.
4. Family homes do best
In Hamilton, family-sized homes do particularly well on the rental market. Four-bedroom houses in Hamilton fetch, on average, between $450 and $520 per week. As for the strongest performing suburbs, Hamilton East/University, Te Kowhai/St Andrews/Queenwood, Dinsdale South/Frankton, Dinsdale North/Nawton and Flagstaff/Rototuna have recently experienced the strongest rental growth for family-sized properties with three to five (or more) bedrooms.
5. Landlord responsibilities
When you turn your personal home into a rental, you will take on the mantle of landlord, which comes with its own set of responsibilities. This includes finding and screening tenants, conducting or arranging inspections, repairs and maintenance. It’s a lot to manage—especially if you’re no longer living in the region. It’s why so many investors hire professional property managers to take care of the day-to-day running of their properties. Moreover, their fees are tax deductible.
Important note: If you’re leaving the country for more than 21 days, you’ll need to either appoint someone as your landlord in your stead or hire a property manager.
6. Tax implications
If you turn your home into a residential investment, be aware that you may not be able to make tax claims against it. It always pays to talk to a professional accountant to make sure you set up your home-turned-rental properly to avoid issues with tax, ownership and debt allocation.

About 1900 Spark staff are being invited to sign new employment contracts agreeing to new ways of working, or leave the company.
The new contracts have been prompted by Spark deciding to bring forward the new system as part of a wider restructuring programme .Spark staff are being asked to adopt a new way of working popularised by the software industry called Agile.As the C.E.Os. bonus is paid on share price and nothing ramps the share price up like making staff redundant aka Paul Reynolds and a 750 person shakeout of middle management a number of years ago, so no surprises there
Will this 'Agile" system be quick enough to remove spam from all the xtra customer that are still suffering 12 months after the swap from yahoo to a New Zealand based software program for removing spam
Mind you it has had some benefits, as my penis has in creased to 2 foot as thanks to a secret action that's increases it by four inches a day, which is great news to the fifty Russian prostitutes ,who send photos of various parts of their anatomy on a daily basis ,no matter how many times i politely delete their entreaties
They where however delighted to know that I had finally found a cure for herpes ,which alleviates their concern about their sexual health can't wait they are able to skype as this Indians secret recipe has relieved me of the tinnitus and I can now hear them when they talk dirty
Exciting! Time to get serious!
These kids have been practicing for about 10 weeks to get their grading today, hope they do well!
