A private client engaged Serpenti Investigations NZ to conduct a detailed due diligence investigation prior to finalising the purchase of a residential property being sold "off the plans" in Auckland.
The developer in question had a limited track record in Auckland, with their prior activities primarily confined to Christchurch.
The client sought independent verification of the developer’s credibility, financial stability, business practices, and reputation before proceeding with a significant investment.
Validate the integrity and reputation of the developer, assess their operational and financial standing, and identify any risks associated with proceeding with the property transaction.
"Serpenti Investigations provided me with the peace of mind I needed to move forward with my investment.
Their thoroughness, independence, and detailed reporting made all the difference in my decision-making process."
— Private Investor, Auckland
The investigation confirmed that, while the developer was relatively new to the Auckland market, they had an acceptable track record in Christchurch, with no major regulatory breaches, litigation, or financial red flags identified.
A comprehensive due diligence report was delivered to the client, outlining strengths, minor risks, and key recommendations for additional contract protections.
Empowered with independent verification, the client proceeded with the property purchase confidently, having mitigated significant investment risk.
