TURN YOUR DREAM INTO A REALITY 03 383 4384 | www.misco.co.nz With an extensive portfolio of home and income designs, Mike Greer Homes Central Otago has been a popular choice for those building a new home in Hanley’s Farm, especially with Queenstown’s well publicised rental housing shortage. “We have a library of 34 home and income plans, from entry level through to large four bedroom homes with two bedroom attached units, which can be adjusted as people require. It’s a great way for people to see what’s possible and get ideas,” says Mike Greer Homes Central Otago managing director Mike Millar. He says clients have been a mix of home buyers, who have been able to get into the housing market with the help of renting out the income unit to help them pay off the mortgage, holiday home owners who want to be able to have a little cashflow to pay the expenses on their property and also out of town investors benefiting from yields of around 7% plus the tax benefits of a new home build. He says it’s a win-win helping to alleviate the local housing crisis by providing much needed rental accommodation. Mike says that Hanley’s Farm has design covenants that protect people’s investment by ensuring a high quality development.
