What Is Your Otahuhu Home Worth?
Ōtāhuhu sits at the narrowest point of the Auckland isthmus, the historic portage between the Waitematā and Manukau harbours. It has one of the best-connected transport interchanges in the city, a busy main street, and a market that reflects its position between the industrial south and the central suburbs.

How long does an appraisal take?

What is the difference between an appraisal and a registered valuation?
An appraisal is a licensed agent's opinion of what your property would sell for in the current market, and it is free. A registered valuation is a formal document prepared by a registered valuer, usually required by a bank, and it is a paid service. Most people selling a home start with an appraisal.
