About Us

Meet John & Liz: A Personal Approach to Homebuilding

We’re John and Liz Mole — partners in life and business, raising our family on Auckland’s North Shore while building homes across Rodney.

Our ties to this region run deep — from weekends in Matakana with our kids to years spent working with locals across Warkworth, Omaha, Leigh, and beyond. We know the lifestyle, the land, and the people — and we bring that understanding to every project.

Family is at the heart of everything we do. Our eldest, Emily, is based in Australia after completing her degree in Business and Marketing. Joe has recently finished his degree in Surveying, and we’re proud to use his firm for our surveys. Jamie, our youngest at 10, keeps us on our toes with her love of sport, music, and socialising. One day, our kids may join us in the business, but for now, we enjoy sharing our passions for travel, coffee, fitness, and family life together.

As hands-on owners (and parents), we understand what it means to create a home that truly works for entertaining and family living. That’s why we guide each build personally — not through layers of middle management. You’ll work with a team who genuinely cares, supported by the strength, systems, and stability of the Stonewood Homes network, with over 30 years of experience and a reputation for quality nationwide.

Our Bigger Vision

As part of the Stonewood Homes national network, our vision is to become New Zealand’s most recommended home builder. We believe that starts with how we show up for every client, every day, right here in Rodney.

Let’s Build Something That Feels Like Home
