Description

New HomeRun episode out now!We sit down with Hamish Firth — Managing Director of Mt Hobson Group — one of Aotearoa’s most experienced resource-consent consultants. After 25 years navigating the tangled planning system, he’s seen it all: from shiny proposals to agonising delays, council curveballs, and projects that never see the light of day.In this episode we get real about what really gets consented — and what gets buried. Because in our housing/development world, the difference between “approved” and “dead in the water” often comes down to one meeting or one misunderstood clause.Tune in if you want the truth about how building dreams and nightmares get shaped.
