Rangitake Street was a complex residential project that required significant remediation beyond the original scope.

The property was purchased from a deceased estate and had been sitting on temporary piles for approximately 20 years. It was also heavily affected by long-term hoarding, with the basement filled from floor to ceiling.

An initial inspection was completed alongside a builder, and allowances were made for known issues, including settlement and general condition. However, once the property was cleared, further structural damage was uncovered that exceeded initial expectations.

This required a full reassessment of the project, including redesigning the foundations, obtaining building consent, and completing all remedial works before proceeding with the renovation. In addition, the home required a full internal cosmetic renovation.

As a result of these factors, the project extended approximately five months beyond the original timeframe. Throughout the process, decisions were made conservatively, compliance was prioritised, and the project was managed through to completion.

Rangitake Street reflects the reality of active property trading — not every project goes to plan, but outcomes are achieved through disciplined decision-making, transparency, and follow-through.
