Nothing's a problem when you live at the Pinnacle

We've talked about why the apartments at Pinnacle are selling so well and last week, we chatted about why downsizing from a suburban home to a Pinnacle apartment is a fantastic idea.

But what about when guests come to stay?

No problem. Firstly, guests are going to want to stay with you because you're in town - right where the action can be found. No more conversations along the lines of:

Your guest: "We need to thank you for having us stay, what about dinner and a show on Friday night? our treat."
You: "Yeah, well that'd be a great idea, but Friday night traffic in Auckland" Sucks air through teeth and whistles, "We'd need to leave here at 4pm to make sure we're in the city in time to miss the traffic and get a park. And then there's the cost of car parking."
Your guest: "Oh, maybe we should just eat in and get a DVD."

Now, imagine if you're living in your apartment at the Pinnacle:

Your guest: "We need to thank you for having us stay, what about dinner and a show on Friday night? our treat."
You: "Great. I'll book the tickets. We can pop down the road for a bite to eat and then go onto the show. And there's a great new bar that's opened by the theatre, we could have a night cap there afterwards."
Your guest: "Great. Let's do it."

And because you're going to have guests to stay, you're going to need that second guest bathroom. No problem organising that at the Pinnacle. Just call Virgil today and ask to see the plans for Apartments A and B.

Downsizing? Seeking an attainable city-pad?

Why downsize and contemplate giving up the family homestead for an apartment in the City?

The answer is as varied as the people who have been through the Pinnacle Apartments' show space.

What's become apparent to the sales team is that most of the purchasers who have put 'pen to paper' are couples who are looking for a city pad, or to downsize and leave the trappings of the suburbs behind.

Why are our purchasers doing this?

Perhaps they want free time to do relaxing things for themselves and their extended families, or perhaps they simply want to avoid the morning rush hour traffic. 

We couldn't be sure, so we sat down and had a think. Here are some of the reasons we've come up with:

• An apartment's easier to maintain than a block of land in the suburbs. Throw the mower away - in fact, put the entire contents on the garden shed on Trade Me because, apart from a few planter boxes for your favourite herbs or flowers, you won't be needing any of it.
• More time for doing the things that you want to do. Less floor space means less cleaning. Living on the 7th floor means that you're not going to be outside with a hose washing down the outside of the building. 
• It's mentally freeing to live in an apartment. You can't bring an entire house lot of furniture with you. Removing all that 'stuff' from around you will correspondingly free up your mind to focus on the new and exciting pursuits you'll have time for now you're not mowing lawns and cleaning the house.
• You'll have less money invested in a Pinnacle Apartment than you had in the family homestead. This gives you financial freedom and with financial freedom comes the freedom to make choices that were unavailable to you when your capital was invested in the family homestead.

We're certain that there's plenty more reasons to purchase a Pinnacle Apartment but you should come and see for yourself why so many people are choosing to downsize and live in an apartment in the City.

5 Reasons Pinnacle Apartments are Selling Fast

1.  Best Value 

You'll be hard pressed to find better value in Auckland than Pinnacle Apartments. All two-bedroom apartments come with  a secure car park. Secure car parking means that although you're living in a high density area, you don't have to worry about dings and scratches, or random break ins.

Who wants to head out of the door in the morning to find that their wing mirror is hanging by a thread, or (horror or horrors) there's been a break-in overnight and your window is sitting in little bitty pieces all over the driver's seat?

2.  New optional layouts

The architect has worked carefully to ensure that each of the four apartments on each floor have been laid out to take advantage of the surrounding area. All living rooms and bedrooms face out to the view - there's no internal bedrooms.

There's flexibility to rearrange the floor plan to suit your needs. Apartments A & B have a new optional two bathroom plan giving one of the bedrooms its own ensuite.

3.  A community of owner occupiers

News from the sales office: Almost all of the buyers at Pinnacle apartments are local people and a large percentage of them intend to live in their apartment. As more apartments sell, it's becoming obvious to the team that this will be a community of mainly owner occupiers.

4.  No gardening

If you love the idea of looking out over a tree-lined park, but not having to do any of the work, then these apartments are for you. No more mowing the lawns at the weekend - you're free to go and do whatever you please. If you still like the idea of a few micro-greens for your salads, then every apartment has a balcony that is ideal for this purpose.

5.  Increased safety

Pinnacle Apartments have several layers of entry. A security gate, a main door and then the door of your apartment.  It's far more difficult for a thief to gain entry to your apartment when these security measures are in place.

There's also the benefit of 'many sets of eyes' that come with living in proximity of your neighbours. It's much harder for a thief to get large items out of an apartment building without running into someone who is coming or going.

Then there's also the added feeling of security that comes with knowing that you're living in a community of like-minded people who are all looking out for each other.
