Welcome to today’s daily kōrero!
Anyone can make the thread, first in first served. If you are here on a day and there’s no daily thread, feel free to create it!
Anyway, it’s just a chance to talk about your day, what you have planned, what you have done, etc.
So, how’s it going?
In theory we buy a new place a little better than our current one and sell the current one, leading to only a modest mortgage growth. But that modest growth is the entire size of our mortgage from our first home we bought.
I think we need policy that pushes for more new housing, especially building upwards. The cost of houses is directly related to the supply/demand issue, and right now supply is still short of demand.
