Rea Estate History Made 💥

Last Thursday night Ray White Carpenter Realty (Beach Haven | Verrans Corner | Glenfield) called 4 Auctions, remotely from our living room inside a bubble of two!

With Covid-19 locking us down this week, the team adapted to a huge challenge of working remotely for our clients & proceeding in hosting our Auctions. Agents spoke to buyers through telephone bidding, while on a google hangouts video call to the screen in front of the Auctioneer.

A live stream was set up with Auctions Live to make sure both buyers & sellers felt comfortable and see what was happening!

Incredibly, the market is still moving with multiple buyers on properties, strong bidding and 2/4 sold under the hammer!!

@raywhitecarpenterrealty committed to finding a way for their clients to transact all within the Parameters of a lockdown!

Along with @apolloauctionsnz, @auctions_live, Ray White Carpenter Realty were the first & only agency to create Remote Auctions online throughout Australasia 🌟

Technology has never been more important, it has definitely changed how we do Real Estate.

Kauri Glen Reserve treetop bridge and boardwalk now open!

John Gillon from John Gillon - Kaipatiki Local Board

NEWSFLASH: The wait is over and the Kauri Glen Reserve treetop bridge and boardwalk is NOW OPEN to the public! Check it out!

And please join us for our official opening/celebration in a couple of weeks!
➡️ When: 12pm Sunday 28 April
➡️ Where: Kauri Glen Road entrance to Kauri Glen Reserve
➡️ Facebook event: www.facebook.com...
Free BBQ! Walk the new track!

This is a new step-free route between Kauri Glen Road and Tui Glen Road, with a refurbished track (including steps) to Raymond Terrace. The new bridge is around 6 storeys high with a very impressive view of the forest tree tops.
The new tracks, bridge and boardwalk have been built to a standard to help prevent the spread of kauri dieback disease, which is especially important in this park.
*** Please always clean your shoes, bikes, prams and wheelchairs at the stations. ***

Note: We made the decision to allow public access earlier than expected to prevent further damage to the forest by those who were throwing the fences into the trees 🙁
