Insiders Guide to Building Law

60 pages, paperback.  ISBN: 978-9582987-4-2 - Published September 2009

Compliance made easy is what every developer really wants, and finally Rosemary Hazelwood is serving it up inside 60 pages of exceptionally useful information.     Not only will this book open up better and less expensive ways of achieving positive outcomes with councils and building inspectors, it could also save the unknown and the unwary from digging themselves into very deep pits of despair when working through the jargon and abbreviations of industrial knowledge usually only found in large small printed tomes in the back rooms of libraries and councils.

·         [endif]How does the Building Act 2004 really affect your investment as a property investor?

·         [endif]What do you need to do when you are advised of a ‘situation’ with a council matter concerning your commercial property and how could you better avoid getting these notices in the first place?

·         [endif]What must you do before you purchase a commercial property to ensure you are not buying an expensive white elephant?

·         [endif]And what are your responsibilities as a landlord?

 These issues are addressed in plain language by a woman who says that if there was a tertiary degree in building law, she’d have it.  Rosemary Hazelwood has worked in and around building laws in NZ for over 20 years and specialises in making sense out of the non-sensical and often bureaucratically overwritten published rules of the property business.

This book is a MUST read for anyone managing or investing in commercial property.
