Introductory seminars to help new landlords get it right
It’s your property so get it right – here’s how:
The Department of Building and Housing is running introductory education seminars in 2009 to help new landlords run their rental properties effectively.
The seminars are designed for landlords who have little or no experience in the New Zealand rental market.
There is no charge for the seminar, but places are limited and you must register to attend. Call 0800 TENANCY (0800 83 62 62) or email seminars@dbh.govt.nz to register.
The next seminar will be in:
Palmerston North
Thursday 8 October 2009 at 7.00pm
Kingsgate Hotel
Avenue Room

Introductory landlord seminars are being run in conjunction with ANZ and the New Zealand Property Investors’ Federation.
Advanced landlord seminars about practical property management
We are piloting Level 2 education seminars for landlords that provide more in-depth information about renting your residential property.
These seminars are designed for those who have been landlords for more than 12 months and may have previously attended our introductory level landlord education seminar.
There is no charge for the seminar, but you need to register to attend because places are limited.
