Transforming Home Buying: Share Your Thoughts!
Hello Mt Maunganui, Arataki, Papamoa and Tauranga Communities,
I hope this message finds you well. I’m reaching out to gather your thoughts on a new business idea that could make buying a home a whole lot easier for our community.
Purchasing real estate is one of the biggest investments many of us make. When selling, you have an agent dedicated to your needs. But when buying, you’re often left to navigate the process alone. That’s where a Buyer’s Agent comes in—a property expert committed to helping you find and purchase your ideal home.
Buyer’s Agents, common in the US and Australia, but new to the Bay of Plenty, have no listings, ensuring they have no conflicts of interest. They work exclusively for you, the buyer, to secure the best possible outcome. Here’s how they help:
1. Personalized Service: they spend time understanding your needs to find your ideal property.
2. Property Searches: they locate properties that match your criteria and arrange private viewings.
3. Property Ratings: After each viewing, they help you evaluate the property based on your needs.
4. Appraisals: They provide property appraisals with comparable sales data to ensure you don’t pay more than the property is worth.
5. Negotiations: They guide you through Sale and Purchase Agreements, and handle negotiations and auctions.
6. Due Diligence: They arrange all necessary checks, including title searches, LIM reports, property inspections and more.
7. Protection: They protect you from common pitfalls and costly mistakes.
8. Expense Summaries: They provide a summary of outgoings like insurance, rates, and body corporate fees.
9. Smooth Transactions: They ensure all conditions of sale are met and that settlement proceeds as expected.
10. Informed Decisions: They help you make confident, informed buying decisions.
Would a service like this be valuable to you or someone you know?
Your feedback is crucial in determining if our community is ready for a Buyer’s Agency Service.
Thank you so much for your time and support.

Fireplaces/ outdoor ovens
Hi everyone,
Just recently became a member on here and would like to let everyone know a little bit about my services. I do all types of masonry work on anything from large new builds to small renovations and alterations.
I enjoy doing feature work and can create some cool bbq’s, fireplaces and outdoor brick/pizza ovens etc using various types of brick and stone. We also do paving etc, So if you’re interested in upgrading your outdoor entertaining area then get in touch and we can help create something special for you.
