šŸ“£ We're Number 1! - Auction Statistics for March/April/May 2020

Ali Hellesoe - Ray White Real Estate

This little circle that you are looking at with numbers and words on it is something our team is very proud of.

While our country went into lockdown we made a conscious decision to find solutions for our clients who were partway through campaigns to sell their properties. With the aid of technology and the power of teamwork, Carpenter Realty came together to make remote auctions happen from our auctioneers living room!

Why? For one reason only: #carpentercare

What sets us apart from the rest? The difference is in how we care for our customers. Carpenter Care means if there's a chance we can work hard enough to make it happen, then we will do whatever it takes.

We are a humble bunch at Carpenter Realty. All that flashy stuff isn't really what we are about. But this little circle? It says we have the best auction results out of all the agencies in the North Shore for the last 3 months, and that makes us feel pretty good.

Well done team, you've done us proud.

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.

Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.

For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.

Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?

We hope this brings a smile!
