Dunedin auction house helping out family who can't return home

From Nights, 8:30 pm on 27 February 2025

A Dunedin auction house is running a special auction to lend a helping hand to a family struggling to return to their red-stickered home.

Following the city's October floods, Krystal Bren’s Clyde Hill home was red-stickered after the land beneath it slipped away.

She needs to raise around $140,000 to fix the issue and return home.

When Dunedin auctioneer Ronnie Proctor heard about Krystal's situation, he did what he does best — he offered to organize an auction to help.

To find out more Mark Leishman speaks to Ronnie.
