🔎 Do Your Research – Look into the local market, recent sale prices, and future developments in the area. This helps you avoid overpaying.
💰 Know Your Budget – Get pre-approved for a mortgage so you know exactly how much you can afford. Factor in costs such as, legal fees, moving costs, rates, any body corporate fees, insurance, and maintenance.
📜 Check the Paperwork – Seek legal advice on the property’s record of title and LIM report for any restrictions or covenants that could impact your use of the home.
🏡 Inspect Before You Buy – A professional building inspection can uncover issues like leaks, foundation problems, or poor and unconsented renovations that may lead to costly repairs.
📍 Think Long-Term – Consider school zones, transport links, and future developments. Will this property still suit your needs in 5–10 years?
📝 Get Legal Advice – Before signing anything, have a property lawyer review the sale agreement to ensure you're protected.

Keeping your Will up to date:
✅ Mitigates the risks of family disputes
✅ Protects blended families
✅ Respects cultural values (like Māori & Pasifika traditions)
✅ Ensures your assets go where you intend
Key takeaway:
A "healthy" Will is a current Will. We recommend reviewing yours every 3-5 years or after any major life event. If you don’t have a Will yet and would like to discuss your options, we’re here to help.
Get in touch with us to ensure everything is in order and give you peace of mind.
