πŸ”Œ Breaking Down Vector Connection Costs: 22 February, 2025

Auckland small in-fill developers, are you tired of sky-high utility connection quotes? You’re not alone.

In 2020, I faced a $140,000 Vector quote for my new development. Through proactive and smart contractor intervention and proper demand load testing, they reduced it to $12,000 for me. Total installation: $30,000.

This experience taught me the power of knowledge sharing in our development community. That’s why Dan (from Dry Electrical) and I have prepared a guide to connecting with Vector.

The podcast adds to the β€˜Bricked & Mortared’ technical series of podcasts that deep dive into common issues and concerns for developers. No soft talk, straight to the facts.

For years I would plan houses, travel widely and observe communities. I also had the privilege of working for New Zealand's largest dairy company in both New Zealand and Malaysia. All the while supported by my husband and young daughter. After a while, our roles swapped and we moved to the Arabian Gulf. Meanwhile my passion for property and communities continued to simmer.

Along came COVID and had no choice but to pivot... in the words of Robert Frost, I looked for and "found the road less travelled by" and decided that maybe I could "make [a] the difference".

I look for to find insights and built a few of the houses that we need. This means a saleable house and a profitable and sustainable business.
