The gang only recently moved into the building in the suburb of Wairau Park. The new gang pad is next to several unrelated businesses including a panel beater and an engraving company.  

It's reported the gang purchased the building for $700,000 and there is no evidence of a mortgage being taken out on the leasehold property.
