Property Files

Konae Āhuatanga a-whare

Digital property files are free to view on a Property File Kiosk at the Hāwera Administration Building or your local LibraryPlus. Paper files are no longer available to be viewed by the public as they have all now been digitised.

What is in a property file?

A property file contains information available about the building and land at a certain address. Mostly they include:

Any building consents
Any resource consents
Any other information we have that is relevant to the property

Note – this is not a Land Information Memorandum (LIM). LIMs are more indepth and have a wider scope of information.
