A win for Auckland police, who have seized almost $15 million worth of of Head Hunter assets and properties - including the prized Mount Wellington gang pad.

Items taken from President Wayne Doyle, under the Criminal Proceeds Act, include properties in New Lynn and Freeman's Bay.

Other assets include two bank accounts, a vehicle and $275,000 cash found at a gang address in 2017.

Commissioner Andrew Coster says this is the fruit of seven years' work.

"And it shows that we will persist until we can recover assets that are obtained through criminal means."
