Do you rent in Auckland?
Finding a decent place to live for a reasonable rent is no mean feat, especially in Auckland. So if you've done it, we'd love to know how.
Emily French endured several fruitless viewings before finding a place in Mount Albert and says she's forever grateful to the "random couple and their cat" who took her in while she was looking. You can find out more, including how much rent Emily pays and what she gets for it, here.
Do you have a story you'd like to share for our Rooms to Rent series? We're looking for individuals, couples or families who are renting in and around Auckland to share their experiences.
Email homed@stuff.co.nz to tell us a bit about your place and we'll be in touch.
