Welcome to this Century 21 Premier Magazine. Thank you for taking the time to read it.

The Marketplace If you are considering selling or just interested in values please give us a call.

The market has possibly risen since you bought your property or last had it valued.

We have an extensive database of buyers, looking for homes.

Quality homes and lifestyle homes do not come available everyday, therefore some buyers look for a very, very long time, and until the right one presents itself to them. Good properties benefit from being advertised and to this end, we have a Complete Marketing Campaign that we are most willing to share with you. Ask us how we find buyers.

Thank you for taking the time to read this newsletter. Please feel free to invite us around for a look at your home, lifestyle property, Investment home or block of land.

Congratulations to our award winners!

LANLORD AND TENANTS

UNDERSTANDING LANDLORD AND TENANT RESPONSIBILITIES As a property owner or prospective landlord in New Zealand, it's crucial to comprehend the ins and outs of the Residential Tenancies Act 1986 (RTA), the cornerstone legislation that governs landlord-tenant relationships within the country. This act outlines the rights and duties of both landlords and tenants, delineating the procedures for dispute resolution.

Under the RTA, landlords have an

• Provide the tenant with a copy of the tenancy agreement and the Residential Tenancies Act. • Pay for all necessary repairs to the property, except for wear and tear.

RESOLVING DISPUTES: THE ROLE OF THE TENANCY TRIBUNAL In the event of an alleged breach of the RTA, either party – landlord or tenant – can seek a resolution through the Tenancy Tribunal.

As a government agency, the Tribunal is empowered to hear and resolve disputes that arise within tenancy arrangements.

We have found to manage properties successfully there has to be an average of 50 properties per property manager. Service is the key word and management can only be obtained successfully when the property managers are limited to a small number of properties so that organisation is maintained.

YOUR PROJECT MANAGERS

We sell projects, subdivisions, and house section packages. Our regular newsletter alerts these buyers to vacant land lots or potential subdivisions.

We can operate as your project managers if you want to phase sections or projects to the marketplace.

Sometimes we offer builders a discount package price for any on sales of new homes, and that allows us to manage and maintain the standard of the development.

New houses sell well under these terms for us, we definitely have demand for these and we sell off the plans. Some builders will request builders terms sections at 10% deposit and a further 20% on an on sale or roof on, and full payment when it sells or within 6-12 months, whatever comes first. This allows the project to begin and to get a standard of home that you want.

We’d love to hear from you with any special requests or questions.
