Hi Jill,
I'm based in Australia but some of the questions that spring to mind are...
will you be renting or buying somewhere to live?
where are you thinking about living?
will you have a job waiting for you?
how many of you are moving to NZ?
Real Estate, Houses for Sale, Rentals, Commercial and Businesses for sale at Realestate.co.nz - Realestate.co.nz will give you an idea of renting or buying in the areas you're looking at.
Regards,
Karen
