Won't know for sure till we sell which could be in 3 yrs or so. Would this be the first 3-4 yr period in Auckland's history when values have decreased - I see Rodney is worse off?

PS. A friend in Mt Albert his cv went from 360k to 390k yet he's in a poor area, ghetto music next door, his house is a mess, so there doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason - perhaps his proximity to Maioro motorway entry is a factor.
Qv is not, and is not intended to be the market valuation.
