NZ Living Revenue and Competitors

We aim to achieve a 25% reduction in building costs and a 25% reduction in construction time through careful design and innovative building practices. By restricting all developments to three levels we avoid the need for lifts which are both expensive to install and maintain.\n\nThe choice of quality, lasting materials results in a 50% reduction in long-term maintenance costs as evidenced by an independently prepared 20 year long-term maintenance plan. By following these practices we can pass on the benefits directly to the homebuyer with more affordable purchase prices and reduced ownership costs.\n\nNZ Living believes that the medium-density model strikes a good balance between the increased densities needed in a growing city and providing real homes rather than just impersonal apartments.\n\nApproximately 30% of the land area is dedicated to landscaping and open space. Each lobby is only shared by 6 to 12 apartments creating a community feel where neighbours can get to know each other. A third of all apartments are at ground level suitable for the elderly, disabled and families with young children.\n\nWe only develop near major public transport hubs so that people have a choice about whether to contribute to the congestion on our roads.
