The information contained in each property file varies and we cannot guarantee the information you are looking for will be in a property file. A file may include some of the following:

• Building consent applications
• Drainage plans
• Plans and specifications
• Code Compliance Certificates (CCC)
• Planning reports

For security reasons, there are certain property files that require the owner’s written permission for release such as Banks and Government Buildings etc.

If you require a one-off electronic copy of a specific document for instance, if a building consent has been applied for in the past, we may hold a floor plan or drainage plan for the property.

This is a free service but you will require an email address.
