I re-located last year from Scotland to NZ. I am actually a Kiwi so it wasn't hard!

Anyway, I decided to buy a house before I got there. It was an interesting experience, and one that was ultimately very successful.

From that experience grew a service, designed for people wanting to do the same sort of thing.

Now normally advertising is frowned upon, and for that reason I won't mention my website or any other details without permission. I looked in all the usual places, but couldn't find a prohibition on advertising.

That aside, if there is any info or advice I can offer for those wishing to come here (free, of course) - I'd love to help.

Cheers,

Simon

I think it would be a great idea- a sort of EBAY for travellers. We could resell all the things that would be no use in NZ or vice versa. Perhaps you could send a private message mentioning your website address etc to anyone interested in using your service.

Thanks folks.

I found the "marketplace" area so I have posted about my little enterprise there.

Cheers!

There's that, you can also have a weblink in your sig, just as long as it's a simple link.
Can always offer to have a web banner or sponsor the site section to

Ah well perhaps I should enquire as to the cost of doing that...

Hi there,

I see you have read & posted to a few of our threads so you have an idea of where we are at in the immigration thing.

Not sure of what your service / business offers but you can PM us, would love to hear what you a doing.

For us, yes we want to buy a home in NZ, but we need to see the place first. We need to settle in job & missus to start her business over there (beauty salon). In saying this we have been scouting as it is VERY important for us to know what we can get for our $ over there.

Interesting that TradeMe was rated as one of the fasted growing companies n NZ but do not cater for international members (speaking from experience)... Maybe a good tip for you.

Personally I can see great opportunities in the immigration to NZ thing and have a few ideas myself. Anyways mate, PM us your info and all the very best of luck. Always good to hear of entrepreneurs that crack success stories. Hope yours becomes one of them

Cheers

Campbell.
