Moving to New Zealand in February 2013

Hello everyone,

My name is Imran. I work as an economist in a research organization in Bangladesh. I have recently received work permit and am planning to move to New Zealand in the first week of February 2013. I am planning to move to Auckland. However, being new with absolutely no idea other than googling websites, I was wondering if anyone could help me in terms of suggesting the best way to find accommodation? I will be travelling with my wife. Also what are some relatively cheap hotels which I could maybe get into once i arrive at Auckland?

Thanks. Its good to be part of the Expat.com!

www.trademe.co.nz is the biggest website in the country for all things including accommodation and jobs. Start with that and see how you go.

Salam Imran,

This is Mujeeb, I am an immigrant to New Zealand and moving to Auckland in 15th May. If you could delay, then we can arrange the travel together.. I am from Pakistan. Good Luck to you..
