Check out this chart that I have “borrowed” from the NZ Property Investors Association national magazine…

…and then tell me what you think? (Like all my pics, click on it it for higher res image – its easier to read for “boomers” like me.)
The stats come from Statistics NZ, but thanks to the NZ Property Investors Mag I don’t have to go there and compile them tonight.
Like usual though….if you wanna know more, or more importantly, want to know how to interept these stats in the context of our Dec 2012 Nelson real estate market.. …you know who to call.

Any day now you’ll be receiving a letter in the mail telling you about the updated 2012 CV (Capital Value) of your Nelson City property.
If you are curious right now though…. (re all images below – if you can’t see them clearly, then just click on them to see full size versions)
..head on over to the Nelson City Councils “rates search” section and type in your address at the screen that looks like the one above.
If the councils search engine decides that it can’t 100% work out your address, it often times springs up a multiple choice like this one above.
Just select your address…..and you’ll be put through to the “rates screen” where you can see the CV components and rates for the applicable property.
You’ll also notice on this screen that the info under “Valuations” shows the Valuation Date as 1/09/09, the last time it was completed. On the first line below the big Rates word, you’ll notice the words I have highlighted above …. (Next Year – 2013 / 14) – click on this hyperlink and all will be revealed.
…and indeed you’ll also note that the Valuation Date is now updated to 1/09/12. Typing in a few sample properties today has returned pretty much what council mentioned earlier, increases in the magnitude of approx. 5% in properties CVs.

….things, well….they were different then…
…weren’t they?
Hey it seems even the price of land was kind of reasonable? Hmmm… the ole days?
So…RealEstate, as an investment….I ask you the investment question?
After all ….isn’t it the only investment you and I will make that WILL immediately/directly protect / house / habitat our loved ones, isn’t it?
Or am I wrong………and will shares in Apple or Google or Telecom or P&G have a similar risk, and do that too?

Renovation Fever (“Reno Fever” in Aussie talk) is about to hit the small screen, very soon. (15 days, 2 hrs, 47 mins, and 56 seconds away actually according to the counter on their site here)
Hot on the heels of a very successful 4 + year run across the ditch, where, on many occasions, it made it to being Aussies most watched program status….
a recent article in The North Shore Times points to the purchase of a 4 adjacent property lot in Takapuna, where it looks more than likely the program will be based.
Although Anneke Bodde, the publicist for the TV3 show, is saying at this stage that they won’t confirm the filming location…….there are other signs according to the newspaper report……
Four dilapidated brick houses on Anzac St have been marked with numbers and have had television crews swarming all week.
Pretty soon 4 couples will embark on the home renovation of their life.
Apparently it would appear that us Kiwis, well, we are one country of 4.4m DIYer’s, and it wouldn’t surprise me at all if the whole country takes these couples and the program to heart.
Who could forget Mark & Duncan from series 3?
Renovation aficionados will recognize these 2 larger than life Aussie characters from the OZ version of the reality TV lifestyle program, “The Block.” As you can see from the above clip, even taking the time out to offer pointers on other DIY projects.
Now who could forget “that laugh.”
Well, watch TV3 from July 4, and you’ll definitely see why……
….and also experience the reasons why this series was such a hit over The ditch.
For the first time in NZ, we will be able to watch the weekly trials and tribulations of our own Kiwi contestants going for it, on home turf.
