Fit check

Is the Boardroom right for you?

Yes, if you…

  • Want significant six-figure equity uplift from one project
  • Target 10%+ gross yields and long-term cashflow
  • Are ready to make serious inroads now
  • Will manage a large project - or invest in the team to manage it for you
  • Have $400k+ of usable equity

Not yet, if you…

  • Haven't managed a renovation before (doesn't apply to Hands-Free)
  • Have less than $400k usable equity - Accelerate builds it

Not there yet? Start with Accelerate - most Boardroom clients did.

Wolfe Property drives the deal - sourcing, negotiation, planning and full project management. White glove; you approve the key decisions.

All prices NZD including GST. The fee can be paid through usable equity - speak to your broker. Used by CEOs, All Blacks and professional athletes who earn well but don't have the hours.

Two ways to run it

Coached 1:1 - or completely Hands-Free.

Boardroom runs Coached 1:1 by default: you run the project hands-on, learning the skills by doing, with your coach beside you at every step. Prefer the result without the workload? Hands-Free started with time-poor CEOs and All Blacks - today it's open to any qualifying client. Our team drives the entire deal for you; you approve every major decision, and you're never on the tools or on site.

Coached 1:1
The default - learn by doing, with an expert making sure nothing goes wrong.
  • You run the deal, your coach guides every step
  • Deals analysed together, off-market and on
  • You manage the renovation with your Power Team
  • Skills you keep for every deal after this one
Hands-Free
Done for you - built for people who want the result, not a project.
  • Sourced, negotiated and due-diligence run for you
  • Renovation project-managed end to end
  • Tenanted and handed over - you approve, we execute
  • Renovation experience requirement waived - our team brings it
Buying multiple units in New Zealand from Australia… Her Power Teams on the ground made a huge difference - there was a strong equity uplift, and we were able to pull out almost all of the cash we initially put into the deal.

Boardroom FAQ

The questions investors ask before starting.

How much equity do I need to work with Wolfe Property?

Most investors need at least $180,000 usable equity or capital for Accelerate, and $400,000+ for Boardroom.

  • Accelerate (single-dwelling): around $180,000 usable equity typically funds the deposit, renovation budget, and coaching fee. Each project differs - your mortgage adviser confirms lending, and Power Teams provide renovation quotes per project.
  • Boardroom (multi-unit): $400,000+ usable equity funds the deposit, renovation budget, and coaching fee. It's higher because multi-unit purchase prices start around $700,000 and rise with size, condition and location.

The more usable equity you have, the more market choices you have - higher-value property, or multiple projects per year.

What results can I expect?

A cashflow-first program targeting strong rental income and specific gross yield targets - 8%+ in Accelerate, 10%+ in Boardroom - through smarter renovations and better selection.

We don't rely on market growth; uplift is created through value-add renovation (and value often rises naturally as a result). Outcomes depend on the property, renovation decisions, lending, and market conditions. See real projects on the case studies page.

What is the typical purchase price?
  • Accelerate: single-dwelling houses around $350,000–$450,000, supporting the 8%+ gross yield target.
  • Boardroom: multi-unit around $700,000–$3 million (usually 3–12 units per title), supporting the 10%+ gross yield target.

This varies by market conditions, lending capacity, and available opportunities.

How much is a typical renovation budget?

Most value-add renovations sit between $50,000 and $100,000. The core principle: a cost-effective renovation where every dollar is spent only on changes that directly increase rental income.

Overspending - or spending on the wrong things - destroys deal economics. Knowing what not to do matters more than knowing what to do. Power Teams provide quotes and scopes per project.

How long does it take to buy and renovate in NZ?

Usually around 3–6 months from offer to rent-ready. Most people underestimate this - and holding costs while earning no rent can be significant.

  1. Due diligence and settlement: 4–6 weeks.
  2. Renovation: around 3–6 weeks - a key strategy is avoiding building consents wherever possible, as they slow projects and add cost.
  3. Ready for tenants: generally within 3–6 months of going under offer.
Can I do this if I work full-time or I'm really busy?

Yes - most clients work full-time and have families. The key is relying on a wider network, so you're making decisions rather than managing every call and site visit.

You focus on the key decisions - which deal, the renovation scope, signing off major steps. You still search the market yourself, with off-market sourcers complementing (not replacing) your search, and local professionals do the groundwork. Time stays focused on reviewing shortlisted properties or learning the framework, with slightly more involvement during a live renovation. Hands-Free suits the very time-poor.
