Hmmm, seeing two thirds of the population live in Auckland the choice seems
not about choosing to live there but whether you DON'T live there. Still
$1750 per month for a studio flat, rather steep...can buy a decent town
house with 3 bedrooms for around $280K and pay that sort of money in
mortgage payments.
Be interested if it was more like $250 pw furnished - be also interested if
it rented at the asking price

just up the road, in The Peaks, and it was $800 per week for
3 bedrooms and no furniture. Of course you can get
something cheaper - that is what our wonderful market
economy has done for us - some people pay in rent per month
more than some families live on for a year.

These inner city apartments have a large monthly overheads charge,
I believe -- over & above the price of buying one. Someone who was
looking at one in Wellesley St (2 bdrm) said it was on sale for
$170,000 but cost an extra $80 pw, payable even if not being used,
& presumably could increase unpredictably at any time. (Wasn't
there a case in the Herald a few months back, where a woman had to
abandon one with a harbour view she had leased -- Herne Bay? -- as
the lessor raised the overheads so much that it was unaffordable?)
Interesting, when so many are being built now, and advertised at
apparently moderate buying prices. Anyone got any experience of
the running costs?

Population of New Zealand = 3.8 million, population of Auckland = 1 million.
By my calculations, about three quarters of us choose NOT to live in
Auckland.

Hey, I never doubted anything, nor did I say you wouldn't be able to let
it.
I said:
It's too expensive for me, and I wouldn't want to live in Auckland
anyway.

You wouldn't be able to handle that advertisements in the Herald and the
Trade & Exchange if you feel you have to respond to all the ones you are
NOT interested in.
"Hello, I'm ringing about the car you have for sale. I just wanted to tell
you I can't afford it and I don't want it."

Last time I tried to sell a car via a newspaper, I had some dork ring
repeatedly to tell me this.
Finally, he admitted he wanted the car, but he just didn't have enough
money.
I guess he gave up when I gave him a personal opinion of his sanity when he
rang at 11:00 one night...

Oh, I'm sorry.
I mistakenly believed this to be a discussion group.
Now it seems it's an advertising forum.
I'll make a comment on whatever I want to thank you very much.

apart from greator rates demands.. I cant see that the running costs would
be any more than a place in any other part of town.

Most developments that have some sort of communal space that needs upkeep,
uses electricity etc will charge a fee of some sort to cover those costs. I
had a place in Britain that was part of a development with terraced houses
and apartments, and an annual charge was levied to pay to upkeep of the
grounds (which were landscaped). In an apartment, you'd be paying for upkeep
and (I imagine) electricity used in hallways, lifts etc.

body corportate fees are the rule nowdays - you're not paying rent, you're
paying the fees for all those communal resources (power in hallways,
security, maintenance on the building). How else are they going to cover all
those running expenses?

The $80 a week could be "ground rent". Someone else owns the land the
apartment is built on and the $170,000 is the price of the apartment not
the land. There is a lot of property like this in Parnell and Newmarket
which I believe is owned by the Anglican church. Quite often you'll see
"freehold" in ads for houses in this area to indicate that both the land
and house are for sale.
It's probably not so bad in this case because it is an apartment block
but usually there is a clause that the land owner has that says that any
thing built on the land must be removed if the contract for ground rent
expires.
Or perhaps the apartment is a serviced apartment i.e. hotel like. And
the servicing cost is still charged even if their is noone in the
apartment to tidy up after.

It is called the body corporate fee.
If you live in an apartment building, there's a lot of communal area
like the car park, halls, entry door, foyer, outside of the building.
The body corporate fee goes towards paying for the upkeep of these
(eg electricity for hall lighting, cleaning of communal area, lift
maintenance fee, security, external painting of the building). I believe
it also goes towards the insurance cost of the entire building. The
occupants only pay for the contents. It also goes towards the person
who administers the fee etc.
Some buildings have more facilities like a gym or pool or tennis court
or even a building subscription to sky, big network cable (well I can
only but dream) and the list is endless.
Even my flat has a body corporate and we are not in a flash apartment.
We are just one of four units in a row. It is for anything on a crosslease.
The fee (paid for by my landlord) goes towards the lawnmowing, painting
of the fence, insurance of building (not contents).

just about 6, and can read extermely well, and can recognise many words
I'm sure were difficult for me at her age. I have to say that we were a
little slack with the use of it too, we did not get really heavily into
the proper use, and just let the her read it at her own pace, but I'm
sure she has benefited from it. I think it was money well spent.

I find some contradiction there, I say you did "get really heavily into the
proper use." I think that describes very well letting her read it at her
own pace.

LOL Hang on!
This thread is about a kids reading device is it not?
Apart from some fun, is it going to be another fine thread of personal
attacks, over a kids bloody reading master?
I fail to see how sticking a reading master (which is the topic) up his
bum, would then be very easy to use.
But carry on, as you're the experts on reading masters.
E. Scrooge - public forum is it? Sorry for a minute there I thought we
were in a public toilet.

Good for you mate, I'm sure in the right hands that the reading master is
good value. It's good that parents like you don't mind spending a few
dollars to help their kids like that. As there are some that'll think
it's a good idea, but will be too miserable when it comes to coughing up to
buy something like that for their kids when it really comes down to it.

sticking it up my bum, sounds more like your arena than mine. But thanks

No it was about some dimwitted dork objecting to my commending letting
a kid use the program at her own speed. Some people will find a reason for
flaming over anything.
