Matt and Jaimee Stark epitomise everything about the team at Stark Property, a supportive team of professional passionate people. They have been instrumental in bringing new and ever improving design elements and concepts from around New Zealand and the world, to Hamilton. I have been fortunate enough to have been on all sides of transactions with Stark Property, including an abundance of leases, for more than 10 years – more recently we became a tenant of theirs. What has impressed me most is their fairness and honesty with which they deal with people. Put simply they make it easy and if they say they will do something, they will do it – it’s about doing the right thing. This goes throughout their entire team, from construction to the organisations management and beyond. Passionate about the outcome and ongoing happiness of the businesses fortunate enough to reside in their buildings, this has always been far more important than the cost or return. Reputation is often hard fought, but easily lost and Stark Property know this. They have helped transform our central city with their vision and determination to create aspirational spaces, that attract people not only now, but continue to do so in the future. Their continued focus and integrity, two key characteristics, sees a powerful and high-quality brand in Stark Property with everything they do. This has attracted businesses to our CBD that may otherwise have left, or attracted those that may not have come at all – their reputation continues to bring new businesses to Hamilton, which benefits our entire city. They look to activate their spaces and often this provides confidence for others to develop and operate within the Central City. Put simply, Stark Property’s influence is absolutely without peer and will remain a legacy for our city, as it continues to develop and regenerate. They are committed to us expecting and experiencing better.

The Stark Property team and their architects worked with me and a colleague to come up with ideal Barristers Chambers. The end result is one of the more superior law offices in the Waikato. Attention to detail is of the highest quality and Stark Property has worked alongside me to look for a superior product. Since then our ongoing involvement with the Stark team has been one of collaboration and commitment to ensure we, as tenants, enjoy our premises. It shows how Stark Property relates to and understands our needs as Barristers.

From project inception to completion of Waikato Regional Council’s new Head Office accommodation within Hamilton’s CBD, Matt Stark and Gareth Munro demonstrated genuine commitment to realising our required outcome. They were fair and reasonable through all negotiations. As project challenges arose, they were solution focussed and proactively worked to implement solutions. Having now been in our premises for nearly 24 months we are pleased to say the building provides a great workplace that we are immensely proud of and meets our expectations in all regards.
