Best Places in Auckland/Manukau

[batgirl1001]

Which are the good/best places to stay in Auckland and Manukau City suburbs?

I am looking at renting a 2 or 3 bedroom house with a small yard (if possible) for a weekly rent of $300/pw.

Hmm, it's been a while since we rented, but for the Howick/Bucklands Beach end of Manukau, $300 will not bet much more than a 1 bed flat. We were paying $650 a week for a four bed house with a tiny yard in 2006-7. Possibly somewhere like Mt Wellington?

Have you checked out trademe.co.nz? You can set it up to email you new listing and it is good to get an idea of prices.

Have rents been on the up lately? So I suppose $300 p/w is not enough for decent housing in a good neighbourhood?

Try Addison Parkside - you might hit lucky.

I have seen rentals (possibly only one bed), in good areas such as mission bay and Parnell for about $350 a week, so they are out there. I saw them on realestate.co.nz. Not sure if thats where you are looking, but just thought I'd let you know.
