A CHEERFUL SIGN.
A sign of the soundness in trade in Auckland, despite the depression in New Zealand, is the continuation of the scarcity of the smaller classes of house property. For those who make their habitation in dwellings of from four to seven rooms, the terrors of "house-hunting" have been in no way diminished during the past twelve months. The four-roomed cottages are stated by agents to be the most difficult to obtain, as very few houses of this size are being built. Five and six-roomed residences also command a steady demand, and houses of this class in desirable localities are very rarely untenanted, as in most cases they are let to new tenants before the out-going tenantp have given up possession. For seven and eight-roomed houses there is also a gpod demand, and tenants frequently have some trouble in getting suite.l. The rents are maintaining the normal level, there having been very little variation during the past year.
