    A perfect house is one you don't lose money on when you re-sell it.

    well, on the face of it that is a lot of money but the "Friends of friends" thing is a worry. And that $12 might have gotten them another hundred grand out of their insurer, hmmmm? it is impossible to have an opinion without knowing the facts.

    and my experience in christchurch is there are no quick or easy or painless or profitable deals anymore. Everything is a hassle!

    Good luck out west. The local estate agent has only 30 houses on the books when they normally have around 150.
    The "for sale" sign is only out for a week or so before "sold" appears, as well!
