    Have friends who are thinking of helping their adult son, who lives and works in Auckland, to buy a unit there for him to live in.
    Anyone got any tips on buying into the unit market in Auckland?

    Avoid leasehold
    Thoroughly check the BC charges
    Check view can be maintained
    Avoid small units
    Ensure there is a carpark

    Small, as in, avoid one bedroom units, or small, as in 'under x square metres'? My understanding of small is under 50m2 but some one bed units may be larger than this.
    Any suburbs that could be recommended or dismissed?
