I never saw this for sale publicly? Who purchased it and was its current independent market value? It should have gone to open tender

Has the issue of Transit requiring some of this land for roading been sorted. Earlier this year Duffy (DNZ) said if Transit "wanted a chunk" of the Bunnings site DNZ may have to relocate Bunnings to another site. As the prospective purchaser is a syndication of small investors this needs to be addressed. A large empty building on the outskirts of Whangerei in the future is not very cash flow positive

This is a conditional sale to Commercial Property Investments Ltd . They have now offerred the public shares in the company which will own the property . $50000 per share - 160 shares plus bank funding

Is that the same Commercial Property Investments Ltd that has Paul Duffy listed as a director?? No wonder it didn't come on the market and these syndications can be such a fee provider!!!
