Leaky Homes
I recall well the day when an angry Helen Clark denounced on radio the leaky homes issues as a beat-up, saying it was just the Herald “banging on” about it.
There are now 15,000 homes with a collective repair bill of over $1 billion.
As the Government arbitration system may take over 20 years to hear all the cases, the Government is looking at interest free loans for houses needing repairs.
