With a new series of Love it or List it kicking off tonight, co-host Paul Glover faced a 1News Grill.
What are five things your own dream home would feature?
A large open-plan kitchen, dining and living onto a covered deck, enough grass to kick a ball around, an infinity pool, and a personal chef!
What will be top of mind when you go to vote this November?
Voting for the party that will deliver the best outcomes for Aotearoa and all of us lucky enough to live here.
Which part of New Zealand is underrated, in terms of real estate?
The regions. That's where you'll find that nostalgic slice of Kiwiana that everyone wants, but without a "Big City" price tag.
Which skills are useful in both acting and real estate?
Honesty, authenticity, seeing the bigger picture, listening, humour, creative problem-solving, empathy.
Which three words best describe you as a teenager?
Gregarious, adventurous, entertaining.
What's the last great book you read?
Atomic Habits by James Clear.
What's one design feature that will never feature in any home you own?
Internal gutters aren't a favourite, from personal experience.
What's one personal trait of yours that you work on keeping in check?
My love of patisserie.
What are three things about a house that make people flock to the open home?
Light-filled open-plan spaces. Freshly renovated. Great staging and photography. Gorgeous kitchens. Eeeek, that's more than three, but I could go on...
What are the five essential elements of your perfect weekend?
Like, if I wasn't working doing open homes? Quality time with whanau, nature, friends, convos with my mum, walking our Pug-Zu.
Watch Love It or List It NZ at 7.30pm, tonight (November 1) on TVNZ 1, or stream it on TVNZ+.
