Buying in Hanmer Springs? Check the property first.
Hazard layers, title types and school zones differ from one Hanmer Springs 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 Hanmer Springs addresses
- Title type from the record: freehold, cross-lease, unit title or leasehold, plus land details, nationwide.
- Hurunui District Council layers: flood layers, erosion and instability, tsunami evacuation zones, liquefaction vulnerability, district plan zoning, designations, heritage overlays, other planning overlays.
- 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 Hurunui District Council remains the complete legal record.
Is Hanmer Springs in a flood zone?
