Autumn Winter Greetings from Mary

In New Zealand we now look forward to beautiful autumn colours, then winter ski-ing on the picturesque volcanoes in North Island and beautiful Queenstown in the South Island. Winter also means Rugby - keep your eye on the All Blacks!!!

So far in 2012 globally so much has happenned. New Zealand's property market has started to strengthened with national affordability improving 4.0% and 7 out of 12 regions have shown improvement.

Demand for mortgages is the most active in 4 years. Interest rates remain low (no Reserve Bank change for 3 years). Auckland hit a 5 year property sales peak in March. There has been increased interest in people wishing to emmigrate to both New Zealand and Australia from various parts of the world, particularly UK.

Mary O'Brien has helped many different trades and professions obtain mortgage preapproval with leading New Zealand banks. This preapproval has resulted with emmgrants feeling confident choosing the NZ city they wish reside in. This confidence prepares them for Permanent Residency or Business Visa. Clients fly to New Zealand, rent short term furnished property and look for property in the right area for their child's school, affordability and distance to job. They feel great when they arrive in NZ. Contact Mary for assistance in finance.

On 25 April please take time for ANZAC Day during 1st World War. Please see below information on why Anzac Day is so important to all Kiwis and Aussies. We all know Walzing Matilda song originates back to 25 April 1915 at Galopoli (listen to it). We should be proud to live in the best part of the world (in my opinion).

Fantastic Anzac Memorial song where Walzing Matilda comes from!
