About WhareScore

WhareScore gives you everything the listing doesn’t tell you about a New Zealand property.

Enter any NZ address and get an instant property intelligence report powered by 40+ official government data sources — including GNS Science, LINZ, regional councils, NZTA, Ministry of Education, Stats NZ, and NIWA.

Every recommendation tells you exactly what to check, who to ask, and what it might cost — based on official NZ standards and post-disaster research, not opinions.

What you get

Risk score (0-100)

Covering flood zones, earthquake exposure, tsunami zones, landslide susceptibility, contaminated land, coastal erosion, and more.

Actionable recommendations

Not just "there's a risk" — each finding comes with specific next steps sourced from NZ Civil Defence, GNS Science, NEMA, BRANZ, and council guidelines.

Fair rent & price analysis

Using MBIE tenancy bond data and RBNZ house price indices to tell you if the asking rent or price is fair.

Neighbourhood reality check

School zones, transit access, crime stats, noise levels, nearby amenities — the stuff you only find out after you move in.

Terrain & environment

Elevation, slope, wind exposure, waterway proximity, and how these affect your property — inferred from SRTM elevation data and LINZ waterways.

Pricing

Free on-screen reports show your risk score and top findings. Full reports include complete hazard breakdowns, AI-written summaries, personalised advice, and a permanent shareable report link.
