Buying in Ashhurst? Check the property first.

Hazard layers, title types and school zones differ from one Ashhurst street to the next, so the useful answer is always address-level. Type the address and see what the records show, before you order a LIM.

What we check for Ashhurst addresses

Title type from the record: freehold, cross-lease, unit title or leasehold, plus land details, nationwide.
Palmerston North City Council layers: flood layers, liquefaction vulnerability, district plan zoning, designations, heritage overlays, wastewater mains.
School zones, active faults, sun and aspect, and the area profile from national datasets.

Anything we cannot check for an address is labelled as not checked, never guessed. A LIM from Palmerston North City Council remains the complete legal record.
