I know those areas within reason as well.

I kind of feel like Tauranga's still got all of those encompass.

We've got Marine Parade where houses sell for $18 to $20 million.

A plot of land that's been not too far from my house down on the main beach there sold for $8 million, been empty for years.

And no one's been selling it, but it's someone's put up a sale.

There's huge kind of that side of it.

And then you shift all the way down to Papamoa.

You've got the billion-dollar mall that's getting built over the next 10 years at the Sands.

Yeah, it's this huge, huge change down the Papamoa area.

And I guess there's two sides to it.

You've got Papamoa expanding and growing towards that Te Puke area and the industrial area that's being built down there right now.

You've got a new off-ramp off the toll road for Papamoa that leads to the Sands building area.

And then you've got all the land to the Kaituna River.

So there's a lot of infrastructure there, housing projects and housing starting to kick off.

And then you go the Tauranga side and you go Omokoroa, which is a 15 minute drive, 15 minute drive, 20 minute drive to the north of Tauranga.

But we've got a huge infrastructure change and we're building all new toll roads linking to reduce the congestion that's happening within the city.

And that's kind of been a bit of an issue.

I guess it's been here for quite some time.

There's obviously the congestion, but it is starting to release gradually.

I guess, look, I lived in Auckland.
