#Post

If this isn’t on homes.co, and a google doesn’t bring it up. I know REA have a database thing but is there anywhere else to look?
Not a nosey neighbour situation, looking at an identical new build with further builds to be done

Trademe provide this information on house sold prices and estimates of value if it hasn't sold recently, from the sales around it. It indicates if it's the actual price it sold for or an estimate and provides lots of other info

sometimes the sale price is listed on 'ratemyagent'... you can search sold homes in your area...and often sale price is listed

This site just "sells you" a nice glossy report made up of the public information available about a property... but I do not think the selling price of a property is "public information".

It is once it's hit the Council records

If on homes.co.nz its showing TBC then it will be other places as well - this is usually as hasnt settled yet it but also there often seems to be a big lag in the data - Agents generally dont want to tell you if its still conditional but some do so easiest is just to contact whoever sold it . If it went to Auction a lot of firms publish the auction results in various places.

So when a house is sold and the council are officially informed of the sale, for rates purpose, is part of the notification to the council what the sale price was, and then does that then form part of the "public record" of that property ??
As state in a previous post, I'm not sure that I would want the sale price to be available to all and sundry !!
Are any of the other parties involved in the sale & purchase of a house "legally required" to report the details of the transaction, in particular the sale price, to any official authority ??

Yes auction data becomes public knowledge at the fall of the hammer. For
tender and private treaty there may be a lag of a month or so. Agent's aren't allowed to disclose sale prices before they become public knowledge but plenty do.

These "public" sources of house sale price I assume are limited to the price and the sale date, but do not include the name of the purchaser ??

Its information about the house onl_148, not information about the seller or the buyer. Maybe check out one of the sites so you can see for yourself.

Yes, in most cases but it's fairly straightforward to find out who the current owner is as well as previous owners and selling prices etc.

Not all sale prices are public. We bought our current house privately from family (deceased estate) so the sale price is not public although maybe someone could ask the Council? Council sale code is 13 = Freehold, Non-arm's length and can never match the property Capital Value.
It has changed hands within the family several times so there are no sales prices at all on Homes.co.nz.
