We’ve finished our first First Home Makeover and its a huge success. The clients have ended up with a stunning renovation and made a $50k profit in the process, all in six weeks!
It can be hard getting on the property ladder in Auckland. So we’re helping First Home Buyers buy “do-ups” and renovate them before they move in with as little as 10% deposit
