The 'leaky homes crisis' that plagued New Zealand in the 80s and 90s may be far from over, as experts warn of another wave of multibillion-dollar heartbreak on the horizon.

Leaky building advocate John Gray spoke with NZ Herald, highlighting the issue of substandard homes and apartments still being built today. 'It's never-ending,' he said.

The problem is not just limited to older buildings; new constructions are also prone to leaky issues. This has led to concerns about the long-term financial stability of homeowners.

Experts predict that this ongoing issue will continue to cause financial ruin for many, leaving a trail of misery in its wake. The crisis may be decades old, but it's clear that its effects are still being felt today.
