Renting our home in New Zealand

We are intending to keep our home in NZ when we move to Melbourne and rent it out while we're away. Has anyone else done this and if so, do you have any advice, thoughts or observations you can share from your experiences?

You have to still pay a Tax on income earned by renting your house in New Zealand the best person to advice is your accountant

The good news (on top of the bad news in having to pay tax) is that if the rental income is your only income in NZ it will be taxed at the marginal rate, I think at 13%.

As long as you have a property manager you'll be fine.

As per NZ laws to rent out a house you must have a property manager managing it if the owner is out of the country.
