Hey Lou.

Certainly plenty of IT work in Welli! When you get hear you'll have to get in touch and i'll get neil to give you some good agencies to go with (Hudson and Beyond have been his main ones). Welli is a good choice- well we think so anyway.

Will you want to commute by car or Train? If you want land you will probably have to go out quite away to somewhere like Raumati/Waikanae up in Kapiti. The train runs pretty regularly into Welli and they also do an express. which should get you there in less than an hour. But you probably wouldn't want to drive it every day- quite a way out.

I've seen some nice properties out that way but too far for us. As for cost obviously they will be much more reasonably priced than closer to Welli and you have a fair chink of money to bring with you so should be OK.
