The idea that if you work hard and save, you can buy a home and be financially secure no longer applies. With skyrocketing house prices and cost-of-living pressures, buying your first home can feel overwhelming, even impossible. But there is another way. \u003cem\u003eFinding Home\u003c\/em\u003e offers a fresh, empowering approach to choosing where to live and how to buy on your terms. This isn’t a book for property investors. It’s for you: a first-home buyer, a renter, a side-hustler with a modern career who wants a home that fits their life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWritten by urban designer and tech entrepreneur Lucinda Hartley—who has spent two decades shaping cities and neighbourhoods around the world—this book blends practical tools, evidence-based insights and real-life stories to help you make confident housing choices. You’ll learn how to align your home with your values, lifestyle, and neighbourhood, while navigating trade-offs, finance options and the buying process.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHaving lived in more than ten countries—and twice as many homes—Lucinda also brings a personal lens to the complexities and trade-offs of finding a home. Her work and writing explore how choosing where to live is about more than property—it’s about lifestyle, wellbeing and creating a life on your own terms.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWhether you’re ready to buy or just exploring your options, this book will help you cut through the chaos and make decisions that support your lifestyle, well-being and what truly makes a house a home.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Hachette Aotearoa New Zealand","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47486074454252,"sku":"9781923186392","price":37.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/aa7296ef05993d074e56367960781089.jpg?v=1775782487","url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/products\/finding-home-by-lucinda-hartley-9781923186392","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
