Arrival Accommodation
Many new immigrants to New Zealand often find that it is an advantage to find some type of temporary accommodation before deciding where to settle themselves permanently.
Renting a property for a few weeks or months can allow you time to explore your new country and to suss out the best areas for houses, schools, shops, workplaces and various important services.
Some Regional Possibilities;-
Although some accommodation providers are represented nationally, very often the options for arrival accommodation vary from regio to region.

North Shore, Auckland (Torbay area) - Ex-Four Corners client, Sara, offers a private rental for arriving new settlers.
"Moving to a new country is an exciting time but can also be stressful particularly if you do not have any family or friends waiting there for you. You may not have had time to research areas or organise a rental property. We would like to be able to assist you, as a new migrant, to make your new start easier by providing accommodation on a short term basis at very reasonable rates. We can offer 1 double bedroom, separate toilet, shower and living area. Situated close to beaches and motorway network. As we have emigrated ourselves, we would be happy to share our knowledge with you". For details, please contact Sara on saralane@ihug.co.nz |
