Winter Home Survey 3 Shared ownership of high quality townhouses
	Here now is a specific Winter Home concept for you to consider. Brand new high quality townhouses close in to the lovely little village of Havelock North.

Please consider the situation as explained in my email, as shown in the photos of the units, and below, and then give your thoughts/opinions/ideas in the survey questions.
 

Background

Our second reader survey highlighted three findings :

• People preferred condos to free-standing houses

• People planned to stay less than two months a year in their NZ Winter Home

• People were interested in buying a share of a property rather than the entire property

With this in mind, I've searched for suitable condos in Hawkes Bay, preferring higher quality rather than ordinary units that promise low maintenance, at least for the reasonably foreseeable future, and which offer high convenience, comfort, and quality of life.

The four unit development in Havelock North (one sold, three remaining) seems to present as the best solution to these requirements.  Each unit will be fully furnished and fitted out with everything you'd expect and need, and also includes a late model mid-sized car, too.

Each unit would have twelve shares offered at a price of about US$46,500 per share, with monthly owner dues (if not rented) of about $80/month.  Most people will probably choose to buy more than one share.

What do you think?  Please answer the questions below.
