Trade Me Property now includes Auckland Council flood maps on listings to help you assess a property's potential risk. The maps highlight three key layers: Floodplains (river overflow), Flood Prone Areas (where water pools), and Overland Flow Paths (the route water takes during heavy rain).

These maps are a helpful guide, but risks can change. For a complete picture, we always recommend obtaining a LIM report and seeking professional advice before you buy.
