Kiwis love property. We all know the conversation, right – “when are you buying a house?”, “did you see Sally just got on the property ladder”, “OMG these prices are ridiculous at the moment”. And yet, we're told by society, and oftentimes our friends and family, that owning property IS the key to financial success.
