| The two large islands that make up new Zealand have a distinct flavour.
With more lakes than any other country, and over 150 000 km of coastline, plus over 18 peaks in the south:
the dramatic scenery has been the backdrop for many film and television productions.
It has also remained an extreme sports hotspot for adventurous travellers.
Offering excellent standards of living with limitless countryside, clean air and extensive marine resources,
New Zealand was named 15th in the Economists 2005 Quality of Life Index. The warm maritime climate rarely exceeds 30 degrees,
even in the tropical north. With a strong sense of Maori heritage, excellent health care, and political freedom,
New Zealand offers something for everyone.
Within the last 20 years New Zealand has stabilised its economy by changing from a dependent agrarian to a globally competitive
industrialized economy. With its excellent living conditions and string tourism trade, real estate offers excellent
opportunities for holiday homes and long term property investment.
