I've ended up doing bounce-trips* to Auckland twice in the last two days, to deal with one specific real estate personage. On Monday, I went to view a property which was NOTHING like the pictures, was less than amused, and was going to let things lie.

Don't panic! Find your towel!

Since she's offered it to you in writing, she probably can't legally offer it to anyone else, especially since you can't physically sign the paper at the first quoted time. She's given it to you, so you're going to get it.

Ohhhh I didn't know that. I know about the giving notice period for NZ (landlords have to give you 6 weeks if they want you out, but you only have to give them 3 weeks if you're leaving). But we got it, so I don't need to worry. XD

My family calls them bounce trips, because we feel like we're bouncing over the map. I wonder what the rest of the country calls them...

I spent two weeks at my roommate-to-be's current house, hunting while she worked, and GAH, it was almost as miserable as job-hunting. Why can it not be like sims? Where you can say, "that house, I like it", and then place another just like it from the lots bin? >___>
