2. e-Report Terms of Use

Function and use of report

The purpose of this computer generated report is to provide you with property information, including an estimate of the market value of the property, as at the date the report is issued. It has been generated from a range of data sources that has been compiled by Quotable Value Limited (QV) including the following: Council Property & Sales Data, Google Maps, LINZ Titles, RBNZ Interest Rates, Statistics NZ Census Data and QV’s.

Internal Databases.

The estimate contained in this report cannot be used for lending purposes. Any decision on this property that is reliant on its value must take account of the limitations of this estimate as stated below. The report is not designed to replace a professional valuation and if a significant variation of the estimate would materially affect you we recommend you obtain a Registered Valuers report.

Limitations of report

No physical inspection has been made in arriving at the estimate provided in this report. We have relied on the data source information held by QV for the subject property. The estimate is generated on the assumption that there:

  • have been no changes to the property from the information provided from the data sources
  • are no issues that may affect the property such as the title, planning, resource consent, Local Authority requirements, hazardous or noxious substances; and
  • are no other matters that will affect the value of the property,
  • Any users of this estimate need to be aware that this may not be the case and that further enquiry could result in a significantly different value for the property. The Record of Title was not searched for this estimate of value. A search of the Record of Title at Land Information New Zealand will confirm these details. This Report does not comply with the standards for a market valuation from the Institute of Valuers.

Limitation of liability

QV does not accept any responsibility or liability for loss should this estimate be used by any other party, or for any other purpose, or without regard to the limitations stated above. QV makes no warranties or guarantees and does not accept any responsibility for the extent or quality of the information from the data sources used to generate this report. Nothing in these conditions is intended to limit or replace any of our obligations or your rights under relevant consumer law including the Fair Trading Act 1986, the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993 and the Privacy Act 2020. Your rights of redress under the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993 apply if we have not complied with our obligations under that Act, for example, the guarantee that our services are fit for purpose. Under the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993 we may be liable for any loss or damage resulting from the failure to comply so long as the loss or damage was reasonably foreseeable. If you have purchased this report "in trade" as defined under the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993 you agree that the guarantees under that Act will not apply to the provision of or use of our services. If you do have any complaints or believe we are not meeting our obligations under Consumer Law, we encourage you to contact us.

Publication

Neither the whole nor any part of this Report or any reference thereto may be published, included in any document, circular or referenced without seeking our approval of the form and context in which it will appear.

Cancellation Policy

Once you have purchased a report QV are unable to cancel the transaction, therefore QV are unable to offer refunds for purchased reports. However, consumers are able to apply for a remedy should any of the circumstances arise that are included in the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993
