Unconsented renovations being exposed in property market

From Nights, 10:17 pm on 28 August 2024

It may be a buyer's market, but buyers are being encouraged to beware of unconsented renovations on their potential future home.

Russell Clark from Licensed Renovations says unconsented renovations have been coming out of the woodwork in recent months, holding up sales and costing sellers thousands.

He says his phone these days is ringing off the hook with people needing to get council sign-off before their sale can go through.

Russell will be at the Auckland Home Show at the Auckland Showgrounds next week giving out free advice.

He joins Mark Leishman.
