Most people know that getting the gardens, exterior and entrance of your property sorted can drastically improve its perceived value. At negotiation time this can leave a seller tens of thousands of dollars better off than without paying attention to the presentation of the properties grounds.
At MTC Property Management, we have been helping property owners improve their most valuable asset in a range of ways for a few years now. We have done this through rapid property cleanups, regular garden, hedge and lawn maintenance, exterior building cleans and the like. We want viewers to see your property with the mess and overgrowth gone, the light shining in and paths walkways and entrances bring inviting and tidy.
You might have seen us buzzing around your neighbourhood in an MTC sign written vehicle. Stop by and see how we can help at www.mtc.kiwi...

Does having your groceries packed for you at the checkout influence where you do your grocery shop? If so, tell us why.

Here’s a few tips to help you stay safe, avoid buying stolen property, and not get taken advantage of:
💸If it is too good to be true, it probably is, or it could be stolen property.
💸If it’s being sold as new, ask for the receipt for the warranty. If they can’t provide it, that’s a red flag.
💸Check the seller’s profile, is it new or relatively blank?
💸If you make a purchase and need to meet somebody to get it, choose somewhere well-lit and well populated in public, near CCTV. If it has to be somebody’s home, take someone with you and let someone else know where you’re going and when.
💸Be especially cautious when buying power tools or high-end toy brick building block sets.
Sadly, if you unknowingly buy stolen property, you’re aiding criminals and inadvertently supporting them to steal more.
If you find a suspect listing or social media scam, call 105, or report it with us online at 105.police.govt.nz
Using your car is convenient, except for finding parking.
Cycling lets you leave anytime, but you might arrive soaked.
So, neighbours, if public transport had the perk of being free, would it be your main way to commute?
