As 100% sole property owner since mid 2006 of 20 Regia Close, Half Moon Bay, Auckland, in recent a few years, mainly during each Xmas & New Year period, I alone spent a lot of time to 100% independently maintain, innovate the outside of my property (not the inside of my property, as its inside … View moreAs 100% sole property owner since mid 2006 of 20 Regia Close, Half Moon Bay, Auckland, in recent a few years, mainly during each Xmas & New Year period, I alone spent a lot of time to 100% independently maintain, innovate the outside of my property (not the inside of my property, as its inside has already been done by myself alone a few years ago). This is for increasing the value of the long term investment of my property (plus the property value increasing opportunities 1) after the completion of the new Panmure basin bridge currently under construction 2) when the sea level increases to a certain level, there is a good sea view from the upstairs windows of my property) and my own living standard, not for sale.
(the ebikes and trailer etc transportation facilities I independently designed and constructed is for my own use also, and for the use of my future new flatmates who're interested with renting them for a weekly fee. I often bring back plenty of fresh vegetables grown in my father's garden and occasionally purchase a lot of pork, fishes, chicken etc meat produces and store them in my freezer. I eat them all by myself alone, and have never shared them with my flatmates. this is my policy so to keep certain distance with my flatmates to avoid to Inadvertently disclosing my "trade secret" to them when in closed social contact with them)
If anyone is looking for the opportunity to purchase a property, please go elsewhere, don't waste your time in my place, as I have never intended to sell my property at all.
Apart from independently working on my own ICT Tech business and products (I have been always 100% independently developed my own ICT business and products & systems since I found my ICT Tech business many years ago) at this place (never hired anyone for my business and don't want to involve with anyone else business either), I have been operating a small property renting business here also and so I'm looking for suitable flatmates meeting my criteria.
My property and its facilities have been maintained in very good condition (I have been almost always independently repaired the issues of the household facilities, e.g. washing machine, hot water gas cylinder, HRV system, other electric appliances, plumbing systems, telecom systems, freeview TV reception and provision system and computer networking system etc, except of that many years ago when I was busy at the full-time work as an ICT professional, I paid professional plumbers for some plumbing issues and paid professional electricians for some electrical issues in my place. none of my flatmates/tenants, neighbors have ever helped me with these issues, and I don't need any help from them on these issues, as this is my "trade secret" policy plus I have a lot of experiences on these areas, more confident, healthier, and can do the jobs better than anyone of them), as renting property, its condition is above the average.
Just to clear things of in Neighborly, in case that some of you are misled by the rumors.

The water pump might have problems also, making it difficult to circulate the coolant through the cooling system. The coolant temperature sensor might be damaged also, leading the cooling fans to stop working.The engine has been working well before and no oil leaking issue).
At the moment, the engine starts well, but after driving for 15+ minutes, the engine starts to overheat.
Purchased this vehicle in Jan 2012, but hardly used it, as having been working from home, and parking it most of the time at the garage. Mainly used it for shopping, visiting family members nearby. Passing WOF easily most of the time before, the latest WOF and Rego were both expired at early of 2020 (can check the details here www.carjam.co.nz...), and didn't update them due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

… View moreThree white flags will fly from the very top of the Sky Tower this week, to raise awareness about mental health in the construction industry.
SkyCity spokesperson Arron Money said the construction industry has one of the highest rates of suicide in the commercial sector in New Zealand.
“Flying the flags from the top of the Sky Tower is our way of acknowledging the problem and empowering the industry to do something about it. The flags are a visual reminder for workers to stop and have the courage to ask a mate if they are alright,” he said.
Fly the Flag is a campaign created by Mates in Construction - an organisation established to combat the high rate of suicide among construction workers in New Zealand.
As a mark of respect for the families who have lost loved ones to suicide, the Sky Tower will also be lit as large ribbon with colours of orange and gold on September 10 to support World Suicide Prevention Day.

But Domino's says the system helps keep its workers safe and there is no obligation to tip.
The new feature gives customers the option to pay a fixed amount or choose their own tip for their “delivery expert” before completing payment.
The move has been met with outrage on social media where some have said Domino’s should “pay staff properly instead”.
