The owners of a brand new never-been-lived-in house in Auckland's Flat Bush, who bought it less than three weeks ago, have passed on an offer $30,000 higher than what they paid.
One, of the two bidders, at today's auction made a final bid of $1.17 million dollars which was passed in for not meeting the reserve.
Negotiations were set to continue outside of the auction.
The sellers of the property had themselves bought the six-bedroom property for $1.14 million dollars in mid-May.
Construction of the Flat Bush School Road property, which came with double-glazed windows, underfloor bathroom heating, an intercom door camera and central vacuum system, had just been completed in March, before it was listed for sale on April 15.
