Can't lose ! 
Bearing in mind someone I know is about to move to Dairy Flat in Auckland to a 3 bed house, no mains sewarage (septic tank), no mains water (roof water) and has happilly paid just over three quarters of a million nz dollars for it.
I like my four bed detatched, centrally heated (warm air vents but it does the job), double glazed, floor and ceiling insulated, mains water, mains sewer, mains gas and electricity house. To bad it's in Wanganui you say. Oh the postcode bothers you. I apologise.

Pools apparently put 10% of potential buyers off but also attract 10% of potential buyers (according to an on line EA report).

our neighbour's place was on the market for at least 4 months. but very quirky although quite new
seems if you want to maximise your value that going to auction is the way.
in the old days it was a sign the vendor was desperate to get rid.........

waiheke is lovely but the houses are more like holiday homes and its a pain to get to anywhere.
