Living overseas or out of town? We can help you sell your Christchurch property.
Whether you’re heading to Auckland, Australia, or further away, an unsold damaged property is an anchor. We’ve bought many properties from owners who were already overseas. One call, one person, and a settlement date that fits around your move.
Purchase completed while you’re in another city or country
One person to deal with — no coordinating multiple parties
No open homes or on-site management required from you
Flexible settlement date to fit around your move
You shouldn’t have to delay your move because of a property.
When someone is moving to Auckland, Australia, or further abroad, a damaged Christchurch property becomes an anchor. A real estate agent listing means months of open homes, conditional offers, and negotiations that are nearly impossible to manage remotely. Damaged properties also struggle to attract finance-ready buyers, meaning sales fall through at the conditional stage more often than not.
My New Start has handled exactly this situation many times — including purchases where the owner was already overseas. One point of contact, an unconditional offer, and a flexible settlement date that works around the move.
What people in your situation ask us
Three steps from first call to settlement
No agents, no open homes, no surprises. One person handles everything from start to finish.
Get in touch
Call us on 0800 697 827 or fill in the form on our website. You’ll speak directly with Kane or Ronan — not a call centre. We aim to respond within 24 hours.
We visit your property
We come to you, do our homework on the area, and assess the property on the day. We’ll present you with a written, unconditional offer within 24 hours of our visit.
Accept and settle
No agent fees, no hidden costs, no last-minute changes. The price we offer is the price you receive — on the settlement date you choose.
“We currently live in Australia and were at a loss as to what to do with our house in Christchurch. Kane took all the pressure and stress off us and looked after everything for us. With us living in Australia that was such a relief. There is no doubt in our minds that without Kane we would still be struggling to sort out our very badly damaged house.”
