Success Story
Jonathan and Tamara’s Platinum Story
Jonathan and Tamara wanted a house designed specifically to suit their family with son Isaiah and Jonathan’s mum. When they found the piece of land they wanted to build on, they talked to the local Platinum Homes Rotorua team about their options. Their new four-bedroom, two living areas, open-plan house was the kind of home they’d always wanted.
Special Project
Manawa Gardens Stage One - Rotorua
Manawa Gardens is a 16-hectare housing development in Rotorua, built on Ngāti Whakaue tribal land. This project celebrates intergenerational living, fostering strong, lasting connections within the local community.

The development includes 240 homes across three stages, offering long-term, affordable rental options for families. In the first stage, Platinum Homes Rotorua, led by Malcolm and Deanna, proudly delivered 21 homes in just 10 months- a testament to their dedication and expertise.
