<p>After years of hard work and doing endless repairs and maintenance, owning a brand new, warm dry home has huge appeal. Especially the benefits that make life easier and warmer such as double glazed windows, modern insulation systems and heat pumps.”</p>
<p>Cavalier Homes Manawatu’s entry into this year’s Manawatu Master Builders House of the Year has earnt them many accolades. It is a 315m2 single story home with extensive views over rural Fielding. The home has three bedrooms along with with a studio, open plan kitchen and family room area adjoining a formal dining and lounge area. Three bathrooms and a powder room provide future proofing for resale value along with a three car garage.</p>
<p>As it is built on a sloping site, the area was leveled by elevating the site at one end, to ensure extensive indoor/outdoor entertaining areas. Materials were carefully chosen to make the house low maintenance, warmer and healthier. Colour steel corrugated iron roof and rockcote Integra were chosen to enhance the schist stone work around the chimney and feature wall.</p>
<p>Designed for an artist, the design provides a sense of spaciousness with a 2.7 stud and 2.4 metre Aluminum joinery to take advantage of the all-day sun and amazing views. A walk-in scullery, central kitchen, dining and family room also typify the spaciousness of the design. The home heating options include two gas fires, heat pump, and also under tile heating in the wet areas.</p>
<p>As well as the gold award the home won the Pink Batts Energy Efficiency Award, and the Gib Living Solutions Award, from all this year’s entries.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We all acknowledge that doing business at the present time has many challenges and getting that extra advantage can mean the difference between “good and bad times!”</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Synergy 8 display home is a unison of creative design and innovative construction that has helped it achieve the maximum energy rating of 8 stars.</p>
<p>The cost of the lightweight cladding used in the Synergy 8 can be substantially less than traditional brick veneer finishes.</p>
<p>&#8220;We chose the Scyon range of cladding which is heavy duty but lightweight&#8221;, Dale Paddle said. &#8220;It is an advanced cement composite made from benign raw materials which are low in toxicity. Scyon products are very durable and low maintenance which helps create buildings low in lifetime energy consumption. It is also easy to install and highly resistant to damage from termites, rot and fire.&#8221;<span id="more-1564"></span></p>
<p><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-1570" title="IMG_9592-Edited for WEB" src="http://cavalierhomes.co.nz/wp-content/uploads/IMG_9592-Edited-for-WEB.jpg" alt="" width="269" height="179" />Cavalier Homes used Scyon Matrix on the front of the Synergy 8 and in the courtyard which gives a geometric, expressed joint look. Its resistance to cracking, warping and swelling means it can be painted in both dark and light colors. The cladding panels are sealed on all sides for durability and stability and come with a 10 year warranty.</p>
<p>Scyon Linea Board is a versatile cladding that was used on the rear of the Synergy 8, and for surfaces above ceiling height, Cavalier used Scyon Stria which has the classic appeal of decorative render. The Scyon EasyLap cladding used on the west wall also provides an authentic rendered look. Like Scyon Matrix, all three products are resistant to cracking, warping and swelling and they come with a 25 year warranty. The products are low maintenance and will retain their integrity and general appearance significantly longer than timber. They will also hold paint longer than wood and two of Australia&#8217;s leading paint manufacturers have given an unprecedented 15 year warranty on specific products that are used on Linea and Stria Board.</p>
<p>When Scyon cladding is used in conjunction with the right insulation it greatly enhances the energy efficiency of the home.</p>
<p>&#8220;Scyon building materials are also ideal for split level and two-storey dwellings as it can dramatically reduce the use of structural steel,&#8221; Dale said. &#8220;We have been very pleased with Scyon and see it has a strong future in the building industry.&#8221;</p>
<p>The Synergy 8 was recently awarded &#8216;Winner&#8217; in the 2011 HIA Regional Housing Awards.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>MACKAY&#8217;S Frier brothers spent more time out of the water than in during the opening round of the Offshore Superboats Championship at Newcastle at the weekend. Swells of three metres on Saturday and even larger at four metres on Sunday made conditions extremely difficult, with the super-fast boats smashing into wave after wave.</p>
<p>Only six boats finished the race on Sunday, when the Friers won the Supercat 1000 class in their boat The Good Guys, after winning pole position in the shootout on Saturday.<span id="more-1531"></span></p>
<p><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1533" title="cavalier-superboat-03" src="http://cavalierhomes.co.nz/wp-content/uploads/cavalier-superboat-03.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="224" />“It felt like the boat spent more time out of the water than in the water. It was certainly hard on the neck and kidneys today,” said Chris Frier, driver for the Friers Offshore Racing Team. His brother Brendan is navigator.</p>
<p>Chris said there were great crowds at Newcastle. “Probably around 10,000 people watched the event over the weekend,” he said. “The second round at Mackay on June 25 and 26 is shaping up to be the biggest of the series, with 15 boats competing across all four classes.”</p>
<p>Other winners were Maritimo in Class One, Saracen in Supercat Outboard 600 and FGI in Supercat Outboard 400.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Plans are complete for a $60 million 120-apartment tower complex at Varsity Lakes. The Gold Coast-based Trilink Group has finalised plans for a $60 million permanent residential resort project at Varsity Lakes. The project will comprise 120 apartments in three, eight-storey towers, a four-storey low-rise, and extensive community facilities.</p>
<p>It will be located on a 4900sq m site purchased by Trilink from Varsity Lakes master developer Delfin Lend Lease for $3.5 million this year. Trilink CEO, Mr Kym Plotkin said the development application was lodged with the Gold Coast City Council last week.<span id="more-1522"></span></p>
<p><img class="size-full wp-image-1524 alignright" title="main-phoenix" src="http://cavalierhomes.co.nz/wp-content/uploads/main-phoenix.jpg" alt="" width="177" height="172" />The project, Three at 33 located at Varsity Central and overlooking the 80-hectare Lake Orr, will be the fifth development undertaken by the Trilink Group in the Varsity Lakes precinct. It will follow the recent completion of the company’s $25 million Azzurra Eco project where sales have exceeded $18 million. The new project’s three, eight-storey towers will be identical and include a mix of one, two and three-bedroom apartments on each of the 447.5sq m floors. The four-level building will comprise one-bedroom apartments from 78 to 107sq m with six per floor.</p>
<p>‘‘There will be a wide range of floor plans and we will be providing apartments that are 5-10 per cent larger than most of their type on the Gold Coast,’’ said Mr Plotkin. ‘‘We will also be providing the highest level of community resort facilities ever offered in a permanent residential project on the Coast, with two swimming pools, both more than 20 metres in length, connected by a flowing watercourse. A suspended, glasswalled gymnasium will overlook the pools, sauna, spa, Zen garden, cabana barbecue areas and a teppanyaki bar. Each tower will have a rooftop Zen Garden with views to the ocean.’’</p>
<p>Building work will be undertaken by the Cavalier Construction Group.</p>
<p>Mr Plotkin said the project was being advanced in anticipation of a strengthening permanent apartment market on the Gold Coast in 2011 and due to the company’s successful Azzura Eco project.</p>
<p>‘‘The demand and supply fundamentals for permanent, non-holiday let, residential apartments on the Gold Coast are highly positive in the long-term and, subject to development application approval, we hope to have the first stage on the market early next year,’’ he said.</p>

Group chief executive officer Kym Plotkin said the scheme was the offspring of the global financial crisis and aimed to ensure maximum security for Trilink Capital&#8217;s investors and developer clients.<span id="more-1520"></span></p>

<p>&#8220;The GFC made abundantly evident the hardship imposed on the development industry and investors by tight credit and a market downturn,&#8221; he said. &#8220;Our new structure and system, an Australian property industry first, has been put together to limit future risks. We saw a need to put in place an unprecedented level of safeguards for investors, by putting in place a totally new kind of structure and methodology in providing development finance and services. Undertaking projects this way gives us increased volume buying power with suppliers and the ability to efficiently co-ordinate the entire development process from concept through construction to sellout. It also enables us to closely monitor costs, deliver high-quality product at a fair price, and ensure the integrity of fixed-price contracts. The tripartite agreement provides the security for the investor and is between the lender, the borrower, and the companies undertaking the project. It gives Trilink Capital a call on the profits these companies earn from the project to service debt if the borrower defaults. Trilink is then able to complete construction and after repayment of loans, has priority for recovery of outstanding funds.&#8221;</p>
<p>Trilink Capital operates the Trilink Property Fund and is about to establish a second, the Trilink Mortgage Fund. Both funds are administered by trustee and responsible entity, Guardian Securities Limited. Trilink Group&#8217;s development projects include Azzurra Eco and the upcoming $61 million Phoenix at Varsity Lakes.</p>
