Hi Ken.
Welcome to the forum. I have moved your thread into the main forum where more people will see it.;) |
Re: House Rental
We did loads of emailing, web visits etc, before we got here. POINTLESS
Best way, book a holiday bach for a week, use that week to find your rental. We had no references, but the real estate agents were thankfully realistic and took us as migrants with the points to get here, so can't be too bad, eh? |

Ditto to the bach rental. Try trademe.co.nz - we found our rental on there.

Re: House Rental
Also,
1. Carefully check the terms of your rental, make sure you're not tied in for a longer term than you want. 2. Take photos of any damage immediately you get in, and get copies to the real estate agent/landlord. You don't want to be hit with repair bills when you leave. 3. Ask your local police if they regularly visit your potential street. Ours gave us a list of the "golden triangle" in which they said we shouldn't rent. 4. Have a look in the evenings, who's hanging about. 5. Make sure you have lake and mountains nearby......or is that just us?:thumbsup: |
