Cooper and Co Sales Team Returns From World Expo 2010 Shanghai

Our sales team has returned from the World Expo 2010 in Shanghai excited about the opportunities for real estate sales and impressed with the hospitality and dynamism that is China. And some superb opportunities have opened up for sellers of waterfront and luxury homes on the North Shore.
As a result, Harcourts Cooper and Co will be welcoming 3 tour groups on “shopping” trips to New Zealand in September. I am amazed that they got such a quick response and there are several offers being negotiated as I write. Apart from development blocks and commercial opportunities, free standing homes close to Auckland, with land, are attracting the most attention. Harcourts Cooper and Co are confident of positive results once the tour groups arrive in Auckland later this month.
