District Lands and Survey Office,
Wellington, 11th August, 1926.

NOTICE is hereby given that the undermentioned sections will be offered for sale at the Conference Hall, Dominion Farmers’ Buildings, Wellington, at 7.30 o’clock p.m., on Tuesday, the 31st August, 1926.

The sections may be purchased for cash; for cash by instalments; on deferred payments extending over a period of nineteen years under the Land Act, 1924 (interest on balance of purchase-money 5½ per cent.); or on special deferred payments under the provisions of the Hutt Valley Lands Settlement Act, 1925, and the Land for Settlements Act, 1925.

SCHEDULE.

WELLINGTON LAND DISTRICT.—LOWER HUTT BOROUGH.
Belmont Survey District.—Hutt Valley Settlement.

This subdivision is part of the land which was acquired by the Crown in connection with the new Hutt Valley Railway deviation. The whole area has been laid out in accordance with modern town-planning ideas, a part of the general scheme of subdivision being shown on the sale plan.

The sections now being offered are adjacent to the well-known Bellevue Gardens subdivision and are eminently suitable for building purposes. The land is practically flat and the soil is of rich alluvial nature.

The work of roading and drainage is proceeding rapidly, and purchasers will be able to commence building operations at once.

As shown on the sale plan this subdivision lies within a few minutes’ walk of the station now being erected on the new railway-line.

Special Conditions.—The attention of intending purchasers is drawn to easements for public purposes as shown on the plan.

Intending purchasers are also advised that a building-line restriction will operate in the case of sections fronting streets of a less width than 66 ft.

ABSTRACT OF CONDITIONS OF SALE.

Cash.

One-fifth of the purchase-money to be paid on the fall of the hammer, and the remaining four-fifths, together with Crown grant fee of £1, within thirty days thereafter.

Cash by Instalments.

(a.) Ten per cent. of the purchase-money and license fee of £1 ls. on the fall of the hammer.
(b.) Ten per cent. thereof on the expiration of each of the following periods from the date of sale—namely, three months, six months, nine months, and twelve months.
(c.) The balance of 50 per cent. on the expiration of eighteen months from the date of sale.
(d.) Interest on the unpaid balance of purchase-money to be payable with each instalment, and to be computed at the rate of 5½ per cent. per annum.

Ordinary Deferred Payments.

Five per cent. of the purchase-money and license fee (£1 ls.) on the fall of the hammer; balance by equal annual instalments extending over nineteen years, with interest payable half-yearly at the rate of 5½ per cent. per annum on the unpaid purchase-money; but with the right to pay off at any time the whole or any part of the outstanding amount.

Special Deferred Payments.

(a.) Five per cent. of purchase-money, together with £1 ls., license fee, to be paid on the fall of the hammer.
(b.) The balance of the purchase-money, with interest thereon at the rate of 5½ per cent. per annum, to be paid by instalments extending over a period of 34½ years.
(c.) In addition to the prescribed half-yearly instalment the purchaser may, on making any such payment, pay any sum or sums not less than £5 or multiple of £5 in reduction of the purchase-money.
(d.) Upon receipt of the final instalment a certificate of title in respect of the land purchased shall issue, upon payment of the prescribed Crown grant fee.

If the purchaser fails to make any of the prescribed payments by due date, whether of purchase-money or interest, the amount (if any) already paid shall be forfeited and the contract for the sale be null and void.

It is not lawful for any person, or for the wife or husband of any person, to acquire more than one allotment of land subject to the provisions of the Hutt Valley Lands Settlement Act, 1925, under the system of deferred payments providing for repayment of purchase-money in thirty-four and a half years. For the purpose of this restriction, husband and wife are regarded as one person.

Except on the recommendation of the Land Board and with the approval of the Minister of Lands, it shall not be lawful for any lessee or licensee of land subject to the provisions of the Hutt Valley Lands Settlement Act, 1925, to transfer his interest in such land before the expiration of ten years from the date of the original disposal of the land under the aforesaid Act.

Titles will be subject to section 85 of the Land for Settlements Act, 1925, and Part XIII of the Land Act, 1924.

The lands are described for the general information of intending bidders, who are recommended, nevertheless, to make a personal inspection, as the Department is not responsible for the accuracy of any description.

Full particulars may be obtained at this office.
