Tim Yeoman - Managing Director

Tim’s experience as a property investor spans over 15 years, during which time he navigated the complexities of the New Zealand property market. This included dealing with minimal cash returns, constant tax changes, resource consent uncertainties, and the challenges of managing tenants, maintenance, and compliance costs like Healthy Homes and Worksafe requirements.

Frustrated with traditional property investing, Tim sought alternative opportunities but found that most options lacked transparency or required significant capital for wholesale, non-regulated investments. Determined to create a better solution, Tim played a key role in developing a platform that embodies four key pillars: Transparency, Trust, Smart Technology, and Choice.

Tim believes that by combining proven expertise, user-friendly tools, and a regulated approach, this platform offers investors the control and confidence they need to grow their wealth effectively.
