Hi there, I'm new to this forum (to
all forums!) so apologies if I do something wrong...
My husband has a new job in Nelson, so we're moving there next month with our 21 month old son and our cat.
We need to find a short term rental, preferably furnished, as our container won't arrive for at least 10 weeks.
I've had a look at past threads to see which areas we should avoid, but it seems like the triangle around Toi Toi (the possibly seedy area) is the only option we have. There are hardly any rental properties available, probably because it is peak season.
So, my question is: should we get a potentially grotty house in an unsuitable part of Nelson or should we look at areas like Wakefield where they have nicer rentals but my husband will have a longer commute?
Once our furniture arrives we can find a decent long term unfurnished rental (I hope!) so this will only be for about three months maximum.
