标题: Auckland Vs Christchurch [打印本页]

作者: SCIRT 时间: 2015-4-11 08:29:13 标题: Auckland Vs Christchurch

I have lived in Auckland North Shore and Christchurch before. Also have propertities in two cities. Therefore share my thoughts with everyone! Unfortunately, our office doesn't have Chinese typing facility. Has to be written in the foolowing:

Auckland

In general, North Sore is the best amongst other surburbs, but too expensive. Those who live in Albany when their kids are young don't consider the school zone. Sooner they will move to Westlake & Rangitoto zones. Unless they still count on their rich dads to support their grandkids in private schools. House can be renovated, but locations always counts! The biggest drawback is the traffic in North Shore. There are some always neglected such as Glenfield East & Totara Vale in Westlake Zone. Those areas are much better than Sunnynook in terms of urbanscape closed to all Chinese shopping facilities. Those streets are Bruce Rd, Celeste Pl and Katheleen St. Very handy to get to Highway also shopping facilities. Bay areas except for Milford, forrest Hill, Takapuna, all too far from those facilities. Be aware about this. I am only speaking based on the experience that I have lived there. Hillcrest Westlake Zone is also very good, but as said before it is over-valued. Harbor Bridge will not be built in the coming 15 years, cos Christchurch has hijacked all national budgets and will be going on for another 8 to 10 years.

Christchurch

If you are not from a rich family background, this could be one of options. House in Burnside High School Zone is still very affordable. people said Christchurch Boy & Girl are the best. But recent university entrance rate Burnside beats up those two, appart from Christchurch Girl. However it is within 1%. Bear in mind, Burside High is bigger than those two. Job opportunities here are also booming. I will say if there is direct link of airways (China Southern Airways). Those houses in Burnside will be very hot and no turning back. I think it is a good time to buy. No traffic jam here as well. Taiwan China Airlines operates seasonal flights between Taipei and ChCh in Christmas and Chinese New Year. This year, I flew from ChCh to Taipei and then to China. That makes no difference. The cost in Taiwan is way more cheaper than Hong Kong. No brainer to fly other airways. Job opportunities in ChCh in general is way more better than AKL. As said before, all national budgets are here. If you couldn't afford AKL, think about good school zones, ChCh is one of good options. Better than later!

Northshore is the best even though you never lived in other suburbs?

i think lz consider other suburbs are not part of auckland and too far too rural...

southshore, you understand?

If cannot afford Westlake or Rangitoto, Glenfield College is striving now due to new Principal.

I predict Glenfield College in the coming ten 10 years will be like Pakuranga College that kind of level.

As for housing affordability, Christchurch is better than AKL plus job opportunities. Many koreans sold out their houses at Glenfield and bought a nice school zone here also buying their own business.

Think about this way, selling a house at Glenfield at $750000, buy a business at ChCh at $ 150,000. Then you got a pretty good house in ChCh. That is called brainer! Otherwise you work for Kiwi Boss, in the downturn economy, you will be the first one to be laid off! Kiwis never treat us Chinese the same.

樓主標題其實應該是 Noth Shore Vs Christchurch

I had lived and worked in ChCh for around 2 years, but decided to return to AKL eventually simply because of the Job Market. There is No Way that ChCh can come even close to AKL in terms of high-end job opportunities. If you are a tradesman or business owner, the difference might be less significant. But for any professionals with 5+ years experience, there are very few jobs available in ChCh for you. Even for those few jobs, a 20% pay cut is expected comparing to what you can get in AKL. Yes, the house price is about 40% cheaper in ChCh, but the extra salary you earned in AKL can totally make up to it over 10 years . Besides, after that 10 years, the house in AKL will be worth twice as much, while you will still be on a higher salary than in ChCh. Simple math, right?

我是不是要被扇耳光！在奥克兰生活4多，那天到北岸看一客户。客户告诉我：“这是北岸的富人区，均价180万你可以看海景的。” 车开到那里头已经晕了，再看下密密麻麻的房子，还是觉得中区的wesley 政府的人住得舒服，那面积大，真正的田园生活。

You might be right. I am talking about construction professionals such as QS, PM and all different trades.
Not standard employees!

If you are in sort of high end job, you should go to the USA not here in NZ. NZ has its disadvantages never competing against the USA, no matter what kind of high end jobs you are. Taiwanese students in 80s they never considered NZ and AU as their study-destination. First weird accent. Second superficially friendly not true acceptance in NZ & AU. Bear in mind, German had been treating Jews very well before World War I. The scenaios here, we bought good school zones, rented out and gain capitals. That was what exactly Jews did before World War I in Germany.

What I recommend ChCh is only for those couldn't afford good school zones. They can consider ChCh. No offense at all! There are still young couples not from rich dad background can really look at options except for AKL.

I agree with you in regard of the NZ's disadvantages toward US. But I don't think it's fair comparing NZ Chinese with pre-WW German Jews. NZ Chinese have a home nation that casts vast influence over international affairs, where Jews didn't even have a Jewish nation back then. Secondly, Jews are dominating the banking sector and controlling the economy of their host nation, where in NZ, can you name even 1 major banks/law firms/businesses that is currently owned by Chinese Immigrates? The average house hold income of Chinese immigrates is even lower than the national average. You are flattering yourself by comparing NZ Chinese with pre-WW German Jews.

'There are still young couples not from rich dad background can really look at options except for AKL.' But please remember, if you choose ChCh as the easier option for now, what if 20 years later, your aspiring child figures out that ChCh is simply not challenging enough. Will you have enough asset to support him/her to chase his/her dream in AKL or even in US? Do Not leave the hard choice to your child.
