Ramping
I have details of a local broker (oz) who can assist with finance if anyone wants - or I could post here if people think it is appropriate. I don't own the business or get paid referrals.
It may be easier for Aussie brokers only because it is their bread and butter. I remember when I first started investing in NZ I used nz solicitors, nz brokers, nz agents, nz finders, nz valuers etc etc.
There seems to be a trend of people trying to get their local (nz) team to do a crash course on international law/accounting/finance etc and then use them for foreign investments.
This may not be the way to go as you would be putting your faith in someone who only has a few months experience at what they are doing.
There have already been some fancifull claims about capital gains tax made on this forum so who knows what other dodgy advice is getting thrown around.
People need to be really really carefull about ramping.
It is a technique that some people use. Secure your own interest in something and then sing its praises until you have artifically increased the price. You then get out before the market gets wind of what you were up to. It happens alot with penny stocks and high risk real estate like time share, otp resorts, otp apartments etc etc.
I saw a guy do this to a bunch of aussie investors in the Buffalo Real estate market a few years ago. It was one of the most unethical things I had ever seen at the time. A few years on these forums and I have seen alot worse since then.
