  • Council: Napier City
  • Valuation Number: 9870/42300
CRITICAL TIMELINE ANALYSIS

The 2006 purchase ($950,000) aligns with Aquiline Holdings' peak period:

  • Aquiline Holdings was founded in 1996
  • Ronald Scott lived at 8 George Street
  • The property was purchased in 2006 during Aquiline's expansion
  • Scott moved to Australia in 2006 (per news articles)
  • Property sold in April 2025 for $1,750,000

The 2012 sale ($972,000) is interesting:

  • This was AFTER Aquiline went into receivership (September 2010)
  • The property changed hands for only $22,000 more than 2006
  • This may indicate financial distress following the Aquiline collapse

Addresses searched that returned "page doesn't exist":

  • 10 George Street - NO RECORD
  • 14 George Street - NO RECORD
  • 16 George Street - NO RECORD
  • 18 George Street - NO RECORD
POSSIBLE EXPLANATIONS
  • These addresses may not exist as separate properties
  • The lots may have been subdivided or consolidated differently
  • The numbering may skip certain numbers
  • Properties may be registered under different addresses (e.g., corner lots)
CONFIRMED PROPERTIES ON GEORGE STREET

Based on Companies Office records and homes.co.nz:

| Address | Confirmed Resident | Source |

|---------|-------------------|--------|

| 8 George Street | Ronald James SCOTT | Companies Office + homes.co.nz |

| 12 George Street | Judith Elinor LANGLEY | Companies Office + homes.co.nz |

| 18 George Street | Ivan A. ALEXANDER | Companies Office (LAS Land Holdings) |

The fact that 10 and 14 don't exist in homes.co.nz suggests that:

  • #8 and #12 may be DIRECTLY ADJACENT properties
  • Scott and Langley were IMMEDIATE NEIGHBORS, not separated by other houses

This makes the connection even more significant - the Aquiline founder and

a Langley family shareholder lived RIGHT NEXT DOOR to each other.
