The remains found on Rangipo Intake Rd, near Tongariro are believed to be those of a Chinese man in his 30s, missing since 2017.
A scene examination of a property at McWhirters Farm Lane in West Auckland's Massey was completed this morning.
Detective Inspector John Sutton says the owners of the property - which changed hands recently - have no connection to the investigation.
He says detectives have been speaking to locals about previous activity at the address.
