Quintons is a chartered surveying practice that abides by the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) guidelines and regulations. The RICS is an institution which has set the highest standards of professional codes of conduct for our industry for the past 150 years. Our company policy is to engage professionally qualified people who meet these standards, take best industry practices and tailor them to the requirements of the New Zealand marketplace.
As seasoned property professionals we have come to know and understand the industry and what makes it tick. We know that there will always be a bigger firm, however we decided that we wanted to create something a little different.
We all enjoy our client relationships and work on a one to one basis directly with our clients. We only lean on the skills and time of others in our group when you need to achieve bigger outcomes. We apologise now if our books are full and we can’t accommodate you as a new client. This may seem an odd statement to put in a market material, but we think you will appreciate it. We also think you will appreciate a consultancy that will deliver what you need when you need it.
Quintons is a privately owned practice – established in 2018. The Directors are extremely proud and passionate about the business, our clients and the company brand.

Throughout this time we have been engaged by a variety of public and private clients to safeguard their position in regard to current or potential investments and reduce their liabilities.

What's in it
for you?
→ How we reduce risk for clients
Quintons provides knowledge and know how to reduce financial risks associated with occupying and owning a building.
Our understanding of material, life span and an ability to spot shortfalls in construction detailing mean we can advise clients on durability issues and avert building failures that lead to costly repairs and potential litigation. Property investors understand the requirement to know forward costs associated with maintaining a building in order to manage future cash flow. Quintons can help identify building defects, deferred maintenance issues and foreseeable maintenance to prevent building fabric breakdown.
Our maintenance planning and sinking fund analysis services also enable owners to fairly account each year so that all tenants over the course of the building’s life contribute evenly.
We also engage with regulatory bodies and accreditation authorities so we can be net contributors to the property industry and built environment.

→ How we help with peace of mind
We help our clients relax in the knowledge that they have all the information.
Arguably the best service that we provide our clients with is peace of mind. Through complete understanding of a building defect, maintenance requirements, lease assessments, insurance re-instatement requirements and a range of other services we help our clients to increase their knowledge and make informed decisions.
→ How we save clients time
We get information to our clients when and how it is required.
No two buildings are the same and the complexity of the building environment often requires specialist input. With their broader training, our building surveyors understand how to present critical information.
→ How we save clients money
We help clients foresee issues in either building or future maintenance requirements.
Due diligence reports provide an understanding of the hidden costs with deferred maintenance to enable a purchaser to buy with awareness and negotiate a purchase price to reflect the cost associated with such work. Typically we improve the negotiating position of clients because they are in a more informed position in respect of their building.
Reinstatement assessments help owners identify work required to reinstate a building after a tenancy ends, enabling work to be completed or financial compensation provided. Often owners underestimate the cost of putting a building back to the original condition ready for another tenant.
Through our maintenance planning service we identify deferred maintenance issues and future maintenance requirements that help prevent costly repairs from partial or complete building failure.

Individual Owners
Every year Quintons works with many individual owners, family trusts and smaller scale investors looking to purchase commercial or residential property for use or investment. Mostly it is about providing them with peace-of-mind on items such as the integrity of the building, deferred and future anticipated maintenance requirements.
We help people by providing knowledge as we define important issues and deliver understanding and strategy for negotiation or directly remediating such matters.
Commercial Services
The provision of strategic knowledge to assist the management of larger property portfolios has been a cornerstone for Quintons. We have become trusted advisors to many property funds, institutional investors and government agencies. Typically we help other professionals, facilities managers and property managers by providing well-structured advice and reports to assist with acquisition and various stages of tenancy and occupation.
Developers
Making a living from the development of building projects can be and often is very stressful. We understand this completely and work alongside developers to provide and deliver the information that they need to help them keep a project on-time and on-budget and built to the right quality.
Quintons have a history of helping property owners address construction related issues and manage risk associated with on-site construction standards and financial control. We have also spent time leading consultation between designers and facilities managers to consider if design choices are well placed to yield up a facility that can be maintained with ease and run with reasonable CAPEX and OPEX expenditure.
Legal & Regulatory Services
Quintons are instructed by lawyers, banks and insurance firms to provide independent professional advice or assessments on projects. We have worked with many of these parties as independent expert witnesses to assist the dispute resolution process.
We have also worked closely with these organisations to help them serve their clients’ needs in better understanding various aspects of property for the purposes of acquisition, letting and tenancy occupation to define and provide advice to manage risks.
