What is on a property file?

  • Building consents
  • Building plans
  • Code compliance certificates
  • Certificate of acceptance documents
  • As-builts (internal sewer and stormwater plans)
  • Planning and subdivision information - resource consents

All associated cross-lease properties and unit title property information will be provided in the property file.

The scanned images of the property files are high-resolution and very good quality so you can be assured of a replica of the original.
