While this sounds encouraging, the math assumes once a house is built, it lives forever.
Councils also process demolition consents, but that isn't sexy to ruminate on. But the problem isn't the houses removed from stock, it's the ones that really should be removed - we build with a 50 year durability in mind.

Somewhat wowed this morning - a lovely gift and note came from Brian via chocolate foundry in Warkworth.

Often I will spend time on the phone talking people through the details of a home we have inspected. Occasionally, these people will buy a report, but frequently a purchase doesn't follow. I still take these phone calls knowing that, because I firmly believe you get what you give.
Brian, thanks for proving the principle, and my faith in humanity - good luck with property searches!
