Maynard Marks, has been recognised at this years’ New Zealand Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) awards, being named "Building Consultancy Team of the Year". The RICS Awards acknowledges excellence within the built environment and commends contributions made by individuals and teams across the industry.

This accolade reflects Maynard Marks' exceptional expertise and unwavering commitment to delivering excellence in all aspects of their work. Our entry was centred around our contribution to the recent Oaks Queenstown Shores Resort remediation and refurbishment project involving 161 units over 12 levels, for which stage 1 of remediation has recently completed and stage 2 completing in October this year.

Maynard Marks proficiency in dispute resolution and expert witness services, was highlighted throughout this project. The clients legal advisors commented that “Their comprehensive and meticulous approach to identifying and reporting on defects, coupled with their robust evidence preparation, helped achieve a successful litigation outcome for the client”.
