NAI Harcourts has established a specialised business broking team in Auckland.

Part of NAI Harcourts North Shore, the business broking division will operate out of the agency's offices in Takapuna, and cover wider Auckland.

Harcourts North Shore joint managers and shareholders Andrew Bruce and Rob Meister see growing demand for skilled and experienced business broking advice.

They have chosen David Wells to lead the team, an experienced manager and broker with more than 24 years in the NAI Harcourts offices in Christchurch.

The plan is to bring on a team of an additional five brokers by September, making the business broking arm of NAI Harcourts North Shore a significant part of the commercial office, says Bruce.

"NAI Harcourts is a joint venture between Harcourts and the international NAI Global commercial real estate network," adds Meister.

"Due to this relationship, the new business broking office will be equipped with world-class tools and resources to assist business owners realise the best from their sale."
