Property files contain information such as building consents, resource consents, flooring and
drainage plans. All property files are required to be quality assured by Council staff in
advance of being ready for you to view. Depending on the property file size or complexity,
this can take time and might incur a fee in line with Council’s fees and charges schedule.
Council’s fees and charges have been reviewed as part of the 2021-2031 Long Term Plan
process. From 1 July 2021, the fees and charges for property files are:
- $30.00 – Simple property file (electronic and viewed at counter)
- $60.00 – Complex property file (electronic and viewed at counter)
- $27.00 – Material cost e.g. on USB
- $5.00 – Postage e.g. USB to NZ address
Other charges e.g. scanning, printing etc may apply as per the Local Government Official
Information and Meetings Act 1987 section in the
fees and charges schedule.

Please read the terms and conditions. The information contained in a property file may not
represent all the information we hold for a property. A property file is not a
Land Information Memorandum (LIM) and should not be used as one. If you are considering
purchasing a property we recommend you apply for a LIM.
