good on you juls. would you believe that even here in southland they are having water and power problems. not enough water in the dams to power the hydro. heaps of gas but apparently that is more expensive to pass on the consumers as household power. the water up the rd in queenstown might be the best I have come across.

hi drx,
reading the thread makes me ponder how different all the property managers we have are. some probably are not cutting it which means we have some work to do to fix a few things.
I have a serious question. how much would a property manager in a hypothetical franchise suburban re office get paid? and what size rental role would they be…[Read more]

hi Juls,
I always thought the plan did not make sense unless they secheduled a stop at home and away bay on the other side of the barenjoey. Probably alot of far northern beaches people could jump on there – would be alot quicker than driving from say newport into the city. What’s wrong with the water – are we running out?

P.S. Is their any advantages in buying in NZ just out of interest? Do they still have stamp duty and all other fees?
Hi Paul,
No. There is no stamp duty or capital gains tax in nz. Entry and exist costs are very low and will amount to lawyers fees and bank fees.

Hi Mike,
I have never had this problem as bad as you but part of the solution is knowing that not all of the smell will be in the floors.
Everything in the house will be absorbing to odour over time. Walls and ceilings may also have to be done as well. Cats and dogs will spray well above the floor coverings.
