Today we pause to remember 11th September 2001 - 25 years on.

A great collaboration with our Kaiapoi office. Well done Glenys Grant and the John Rhind team

What a fantastic time we had at the Star Home Show Christchurch.
Our jelly bean guessing game created plenty of smiles (and a little healthy competition!) and we’re delighted to share that Kelly was the only person to guess the exact number correctly. Congratulations, Kelly—what an impressive effort!

Thank you to everyone who came along and joined in—we truly enjoyed connecting with you all.
