Our Team
David Penrose
Born in Christchurch, David first worked on South Otago dairy farms before transferring his interests to property which saw him working on building sites in Christchurch in the 1980's for a few years. He then returned to university where he completed a Bachelor of Commerce at Lincoln University, majoring in Valuation and Property Management. David has over twenty years experience managing commercial property. He is very experienced at renovating property and was involved with the demolition and re-building of a commercial property in Christchurch following the 2011 earthquake. Project Managing the re-build has given David valuable skills which he is happy to put to use if you want some advice on your "earthquake prone" property.
