Taupo region’s population is on the rise, and Latitude Homes Taupo & Rotorua is poised to play a significant role in shaping the future of new homes in the region, presenting unique opportunities within Nga Roto Estate at Wharewaka and Acacia Bay. The Taupo district presents a unique and growing market, with last year’s census statistics showing an 8.3% increase in the population since 2018 bringing the total to 40,296. Trusted nationwide group home builders, Latitude Homes, has had a presence in Taupo for 17 months led by franchise licence holder, Shaun Sullivan, who brings a wealth of experience; having come from a property investment and development background. “We’ve got a lot of people that are either moving to the area or building some form of investment property,” says Shaun, “so there’s positivity from a property point of view.” Latitude Homes Taupo & Rotorua offers design-and-builds or house-and-land packages in sought-after suburbs across a wide area that includes Taupo, Kinloch, Turangi, Mangakino, and Rotorua. “We’ve got five new house builds underway currently and three in for building consent,” says Shaun. “We’re currently building 15 high quality homes a year, and we plan to grow that to 20 to 25.” Latitude Homes Taupo is soon to break ground on their first Taupo show home within Richmond Heights, which backs on to Nga Roto Estate at Wharewaka. Construction of this superb example of the high-quality, well-crafted, innovative modern homes you can expect from Latitude Homes begins in October. Shaun emphasises the importance of considering future resale value when building, and advises clients on how to make design choices that will enhance the resale appeal and value of their home down the line. “Whether building for living or investment, it’s important to consider what the perception of that house will be when it comes time to sell. Are there building elements that may not be favourable to potential buyers?” says Shaun. “We can help advise you on the sorts of things that add value for easy wins in the long term.” This forward-thinking approach is part of what sets Latitude Homes apart, ensuring that clients not only build their dream home, but also make a sound investment. Taupo is largely a second-time or higher homebuyers’ market says Shaun, often catering to those looking to upgrade or invest in a retirement or holiday home. A true sense of partnership is part of Latitude Homes’ commitment to clients, and clear and consistent communication is at the heart of Shaun’s approach. “Our difference as group-home builders is that you’re dealing directly with the owner of the business, and the person that’s project-managing your build, throughout the entire process.” From initial consultation to final completion, Shaun ensures clients are clearly and consistently communicated with. Clients receive weekly updates with photos and progress reports. For anyone considering building a home in the Taupo or Rotorua regions, Latitude Homes offers a compelling blend of local knowledge and industry expertise. o ce@actionelectrical.co.nz TE KUITI Ph. 07 878 5169 8 Seddon St OTOROHANGA Ph. 07 873 6385 79 Miro Street TAUPO Ph. 07 378 8545 Proud to support Latitude Homes - Taupo Proud to support Latitude Homes 021 668 291
