Martelli Buyers Agents resolve critical issue discovered during due diligence

Client:
Rhys and Yvette
Location:
North Shore
Suburb:
Maungatapere
Property:
Primary Residence

The Problem:

Planning their move from Australia to New Zealand, Rhys and Yvette wanted a lifestyle property that offered space, natural beauty, and good proximity to work and their preferred schools. However, they weren't familiar with the nuances of buying property in NZ, how to negotiate a fair price, or what due diligence was needed for a lifestyle home. They also wanted to secure the home prior to their move, so they needed someone on the ground they could trust with such a significant investment.

Our Solution:

Martelli Buyers set to task ensuring they were buying the best lifestyle home. Once the right property was found, we completed thorough due diligence on the land and buildings, and negotiated the best possible price for our buyers.

During our due diligence, we discovered a critical issue: the land was potentially classified as 'sensitive,' which could have made it impossible to purchase easily. This detail was missed by all other consultants and could have cost our clients $300,000 in penalties.

Martelli Buyers identified the issue quickly, introduced the right legal experts, and found a solution that ensured our clients could legally buy the property with complete peace of mind.

The Outcome:

Rhys and Yvette now own a stunning lifestyle property for their family to move straight into when they arrive in New Zealand, avoiding the hassle of rental accommodation entirely

“Vanessa and Alex at Martelli were absolutely amazing. Buying a home ‘sight unseen’ from overseas is a daunting task but Vanessa handled everything with absolute professionalism and beyond that, genuine care. Vanessa brought an eye for detail and an understanding of the local market that we could never have otherwise had; allowing for a fair negotiation and great outcome. My wife and I are very grateful for the support that we received and would strongly recommend anyone considering engaging Martelli Buyers to so without hesitation.”
