From Hong Kong to Devonport investment, purchased $150,000 under budget
The problem
A full-time pilot living in Hong Kong, Thomas reached out to Martelli Buyers wanting a secure investment in Auckland but didn’t know what style of home to focus on, where to buy, or how to negotiate the best price for him. He knew it was a great time to buy but didn't want to make a costly mistake from overseas.
Our Solution
We prioritized his goals, focusing on brick and tile homes in the highly desirable lower North Shore that would attract great tenants and require minimal maintenance. We found an excellent renovated two-bedroom home in the heart of Devonport, over $150,000 below his budget.
The outcome
Thomas can relax knowing he has purchased a desirable investment on one of Devonport's best streets, and he can focus on his next investment.
I had the pleasure of working with Alex and Vanessa at Martelli Buyer's Agents. As an overseas buyer, I simply didn't have the time to hunt for properties or conduct in-person viewings myself, but Vanessa made the entire process effortless.
She kept me constantly updated with available market options and personally visited each property, sending detailed video walkthroughs of every place. Having that level of transparency and thoroughness made a world of difference being miles away.
From start to finish, the administration was seamless, and the team was incredibly responsive to every single question I had throughout the journey. I couldn't have done this without them and highly recommend their team to anyone looking to buy, especially from abroad.
