lived in Auckland for the last decade
where he worked with some of New

including NPT, Goodman, Oyster, and the
DNZ Property Fund. He has also worked in

“We are delighted to have Cameron

team,” says Morgan Jones, Managing Director.
“Cameron has expertise, strategic insight
and a value-add mentality. He’s a great
communicator and will be a very safe pair of
hands for our clients.”
Veros has one of the leading commercial
Asset Management teams in the Bay of
Plenty and the Waikato.
“I was drawn to Veros’ turnkey service
from idea to final commission and asset
management,” says Cameron. “Unlike other
property management companies, Veros
constantly seeks to add value through repositioning
an asset, maximising revenue and
identifying redevelopment potential.”
In the commercial asset management
space, the Veros team is equipped to deal
with a range of issues on behalf of property
owners, including:
• The increased level of compliance across

onerous requirements for Health and
Safety.
• Earthquake rating compliance requirements
and asbestos management and
risk.
• Rent reviews and lease renewals.
• Asset Management Plans to ensure regular
maintenance and safeguard the value
of aging assets, as well as dealing with
increases in rates, insurances, and other
overhead costs.
“The Tauranga commercial property
market has excellent fundamentals and there
are great investment opportunities that have
holding income with upside potential,” says
Cameron.
“Now is the time to bring us on board to
reposition your asset whether it’s through
the requirement for earthquake strengthening,
covering off your risk around asbestos
or working through a process to sure up your
income through hands on asset management.”
