    Hi,

    We are off to NZ first thing Monday 8/Nov/2004. This is really pushing the envelope (not to mention the friendship) but we are looking to find a good Solicitor and Real Estate Agent’s in the South Island. Dunedin would be ideal as this is our starting and departing point, also we have more time here.
    Any names, addresses and phone details would be really appreciated as we are wanting to set up a Company and make everything water tight legally. As we said time is of the essence here, but we would value any input for other Forum Members on this.

    Hi Guys

    yes i’ve used walker macgeorge before also and been very happy with Doreen, but i haven’t spoken to them regarding advice on structures, only for transfering property. Now days i use the Home Transfer Centre 03 477 6157 in Dunedin and they seem good and only charge $564.

    As far as structure’s i’ve found my accountant good at Shand Thompson in Balclutha (must declare a conflict of interest i often used one of the partners holiday homes in Queenstown[biggrin]), ask for Bill Thompson 03 418 0026.

    Regards westan

    Hi,

    I second Westan’s recomendation of Home Transfer Centre, I dealt with them for my last purchase and they were very good, not to mention cheap.

    I can also recommend a good accountant, his name is Donald Scott, he can be contacted on +64 027 210 3060.

    Hope That Helps
    Rob

    I would also add Roger Crowley solicitors in Wanganui to the mix. Purchase of property including mortgage comes up at around 500 bucks for conveyancing. Always available by phone or prompt email replies (recommend Sue McKnight). Timely and very pleasant to deal with.

    Have to put my two cents in here
    Try Logan Bagrie on 027 2566908 or 03 4677277
    OR Bev Stewart on 0274 340 816 or 4677277
    both have lived in and worked in Dunedin for a long time and are great balls of knowledge…..
