Buying in Hokowhitu? Check the property first.

What we check for Hokowhitu 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.
