What is the best way to search for homes in Auckland?
We asked expats in Auckland the best way to search for homes in Auckland. They said...
"Expats searching for homes in Auckland often begin by researching the housing market and popular neighborhoods online. They may use local real estate websites, such as Trade Me Property or realestate.co.nz, to browse available listings and compare prices. Additionally, expats may join online forums or social media groups dedicated to living in Auckland, where they can ask for advice and recommendations from fellow expats and locals. To get a better understanding of the neighborhoods and properties, expats may visit Auckland in person to explore different areas and attend open homes. They can also work with local real estate agents who have experience assisting expats in finding suitable homes. These agents can provide valuable insights into the local market and help expats navigate the home-buying or renting process. Expats may also consider renting a short-term accommodation, such as a serviced apartment or Airbnb, while they search for a more permanent home in Auckland. This allows them to familiarize themselves with the city and make a more informed decision about where they want to live. Finally, networking with other expats and locals can be a valuable resource in finding a home in Auckland. Personal connections may lead to off-market opportunities or recommendations for trusted real estate agents and property managers," said another in Auckland, New Zealand.
