Assuming you're in a Chorus area, https://www.chorus.co.nz/request-install.

 

Otherwise, check your local fibre company to see what their process is. Definitely better to have it installed with a way you're happy with, than let the tenant decide.

Anything I say is the ramblings of an ill informed, opinionated so-and-so, and not representative of any of my past, present or future employers, and is also probably best disregarded.

+1 this 1000 times over, if you don’t install it before it is rented out the Tennant will do what they want

Sorry about the loss of your mother

+1 and the Chorus contractors will install it in the easiest (and possibly dumbest) place they possibly can even if only to save a few minutes. Like the bedroom.
