The $50,000 mistake: How one tradie poisoned this Kiwi’s home⎥Ep. 2082
In this episode, we share Nick’s story — a Kiwi tradie who bought a do-up in Auckland… and ended up with a toxic home, a rogue removalist, and a $50,000 repair bill.
You’ll learn:
- How asbestos was missed (then badly handled) during a renovation
- What it took to fix the contamination and take the tradie to court
- And how to protect yourself from dodgy operators when renovating your property
Want to build a safe and smart reno plan? Start with a solid property investment strategy that covers more than just the upfront numbers.
