They are all reasonable middle of the road suburbs.Prices on the Shore would range from 400,000 to the sky is the limit! There are cliff top and so quite a range.But plenty in the lower prices 400 - 600,000 dollars. Pakuranga probably likewise. Panmure is an area that is starting to come into its own probably quite mixed.Not so sure of prices here.I know it is considered a good location for investment.

Hope this helps.

I would also look at where you work, and the transport and ease of getting to work in the traffic - Onewa Rd is a particular nightmare, as is the Pakuranga highway.So try a run in the peak traffic both ways as that would affect my area choice quite a bit.

check out this link http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Property/RegionListings.aspx?search=1&mcat=0350-5748-&sidebar=1&132=PROPERTY&selected135=&selected136=&134=1&135=&29=&122=0&122=0&49=0&49=0
it will take you directly to current house sale listings in auckland, from there you can do a suburb search
Panmure roughly $350-400,000 and +
Pakuranga $350-$450,000 and +
Glenfield $400,000
Birkenhead $349,000 cheapest higher from there
Beachaven $300,000 and +

for house prices, a good website to look at is http://www.barfootandthompson.co.nz/
also a very useful book to have is called 'where to live in auckland' which helped my family find the perfect area for us. you can buy it on amazon:
http://www.amazon.com/Where-Live-Auckland-4th-2006-2007/dp/047311366X/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1213373170&sr=8-1
good luck with the move!! i'm sure you'll enjoy it! i certainly did - i'd love to go back some time!!
best wishes

by the way, a good fairly central location is the eastern bays (mission bay, kohimarama, st heliers etc) - good schools, shops, beaches, transport etc and close to the city
