Given the high prices and consequential low returns on residential rentals in Auckland, some investors are looking at buying in the smaller North Island towns.
Obviously some of these places are dog-tucker - Murupara, Te Kuiti, Galatea, Wanganui etc.
So any ideas on which regional towns do have some economic future?
My own pics would be Tauranga (benefits from the port), Taupo (haven for retirees), New Plymouth (energy) and Palmerston North/Fielding (education).
Any comments on these, or other possibilities?
