Do you live in the city or in a busy township in New Zealand and are you feeling a bit stifled and in need of a lifestyle change? If you think you fit into this category, then you might consider moving to the country.
Many people grow up in areas surrounded by houses and people. After a while, this way of life style tends to grow on you and the idea of a complete change of scenery often never crosses your mind. However, for some people, there is a common curiosity about whether the grass is really greener on the other side.
Are you interested in animals? Are you thinking of starting a family? Do you want more space, less noise and cleaner air? If so, researching the agricultural sector may be a logical decision.
In New Zealand in particular, farms are certainly worlds away from the hustle and bustle of relatively populated cities and townships. Dairy farms in New Zealand are attractive properties, especially in areas like Waikato, Wairarapa and the West Coast. If you are interested in living a sedentary life and enjoy milking cows, then a dairy farm could be the option for you.
Finding a dairy farm for sale in New Zealand is not as easy as it used to be, but as people age and make their mark in the industry, more and more dairy farms become available.
For many people, leaving behind convenient amenities can be a tough pill to swallow. It’s not all doom and gloom, though, especially in Waikato, which is within easy reach of many drive-thru townships, as well as the bright lights of Hamilton. Living on a dairy farm in Waikato gives you the best of both worlds. You can enjoy the freedom and excellent profits that a dairy farm offers, plus you can escape back to civilization at any time. Finding a dairy farm for sale in New Zealand that fits your budget and lifestyle can vary greatly depending on the area you choose.
In Waikato, it is surrounded by the beautiful flat countryside and in many parts is about an hour’s drive from the coast and about 2 hours’ drive from Auckland city.
If outside of Waikato is your thing, then you’ll be spoiled for choice in both the North Island and South Island of New Zealand. You will find various climates in a variety of landscapes.
Once you find a dairy farm for sale in New Zealand, you may be able to keep it until you retire, at which stage you may consider passing the operations on to the family, or perhaps cashing out in full and settling in town, or in a secluded location with only a couple of dogs and a handful of chickens. The choice is yours.
