Understanding the new Auckland Flood Maps on Trade Me Property

Trade Me Property now includes Auckland Council flood maps on listings to help you assess a property's potential flood risk.

These maps show three key layers:

- Floodplains: Areas at risk from overflowing rivers.

- Flood Prone Areas: Low-lying spots where water can pool.

- Overland Flow Paths: The natural route water takes during heavy rain.

While this is a helpful guide, the data is not a guarantee. We always recommend getting a LIM report and professional advice before buying.
