What's in the report

A clearer view of the site, in one report.

Available council, zoning, hazard, infrastructure, and neighbourhood information organised for practical early-stage review.

Hazard & Flood Risk Maps

Flood zones, overland flow paths, coastal hazards, special land features, and ground-risk indicators mapped against the property.

  • Flood plains, flood prone areas, overland flow paths, coastal hazards, and tsunami context
  • Special Land Features, liquefaction, landslide, contamination, landfill, and geotech indicators where data is available
  • Clear notes on what should still be verified through a LIM, PIM, engineer, or specialist report

Buildability Calculations

Indicative calculations to help you understand the physical envelope before spending money on design work.

  • Estimated maximum footprint, site coverage, setbacks, and height-related controls
  • Impervious surface and landscaped-area checks where zone rules require them
  • Remaining allowance and practical next-step notes for early feasibility conversations

Council Records, Valuations & Consents

Key council records pulled together so you can quickly understand the property, its rates position, and nearby development activity.

  • Capital value, land value, improvement value, rates, title, legal description, and property details
  • Building consent history and nearby recent consents where available
  • Property status, local board, ward, valuation reference, and related council identifiers

Zoning, Overlays & Special Rules

Zoning, overlays, and extra planning controls explained together so the report reads like one site story, not a pile of council layers.

  • Property zoning, overlays, setbacks, height limits, dwelling density, and site coverage rules
  • Special board, design committee, resident society, or covenant-style search notes
  • Plan Change 120 coverage where relevant
  • Land Use Capability for rural and lifestyle properties
  • LENZ environmental setting for qualifying rural properties

Neighbourhood Intelligence

Local amenities, transport access, road context, nearby consents, and growth signals in one view.

  • Schools, parks, public transport, ferry terminals, road frontage, speed limits, and crash context
  • Infrastructure projects and growth corridors near the property
  • Nearby building consents and recent development activity

Underground Services & Action Plan

Underground service checks and a plain-English action plan help turn the report into next steps.

  • Stormwater pipe maps, proximity checks, and possible Works Over approval guidance
  • Watercare wastewater map links and Dial Before You Dig reminders for verification before excavation
  • A plain-English summary and action plan that ties the site constraints together

Common questions

What to know before using SiteLenz

What is SiteLenz?

SiteLenz is an Auckland property-intelligence service for early-stage research. It organises available zoning, mapped hazards, council records, infrastructure context, maps, and indicative buildability information into a free snapshot or a more detailed property report.

Is a SiteLenz report the same as a LIM?

No. SiteLenz is an informational first pass, while a LIM is an official property-specific memorandum issued by Auckland Council. SiteLenz can help identify questions to investigate, but it does not replace a current LIM, title review, building inspection, or qualified professional advice.

How much does a SiteLenz property report cost?

A SiteLenz property snapshot is free and does not require signup. The Complete Report costs NZ$39 per Auckland property and includes additional maps, hazard context, indicative buildability calculations, practical next questions, and a downloadable PDF.

Which properties does SiteLenz cover?

SiteLenz currently covers confirmed Auckland properties. The information available varies by address and by the availability, currency, and response of the underlying source systems.
