Post code maps

If you want to search for property within a certain area the best way is via Post Code.  If you are unsure of what post codes to search by NZ Post provides a series of maps.  Click HERE to view them.

Once you know the post code you can search using the Keywords search on FindSpace.

Post Code not showing?

If you entered your post code when you added your listing and it is not showing on the main page it is because it was entered before we change the code to display it.

All you have to do is login to My Account and click edit on your listing and then click GO to save it.  If you haven’t entered a post code then we suggest you do as FindSpace is the only site currently that lets buyers search by post code (via keywords).

Keyword Search

The current Keyword Search tool is based around an ‘or’ search string.  What this means is if you type in Manchester Street, the system will return everything with Manchester and everything with Street.

The best way to use it is only use one word, but watch this space as we are working on a way of giving you he option to create ‘and’ search strings as well.

Business Zones

Each city sets out what type of business can operate within their centre.  These are generally set out as a Business Zone numbered B1 to B9.

To determine what business can be operated within your city you need to refer to your City Plan.  Try searching on the keyword ‘zoning’ or check out the Links on our blog where we will provide links to as many as possible.

What is the difference between the Rent and Lease sale types?

The Rent option is normally associated with Serviced or Shared Office Space or for Storage.  Normally there is no formal contract in place even though the rental period can be long or short term

Leases involve a formal contract with negotiated terms, scheduled reviews and possibly scheduled rent increases.

Why do I have to enter a dollar figure?

We thought long and hard about this and spoke with many other people who had recent experiences in looking for space.

One of the most frustrating option on many websites was the ‘Price by Negotiation’ and in many cases the potential buyer would move on as they could not be bothered ringing to see if the property was within their price range.

Therefore in light of the fact that this information is what the buyer wants to know we have made it a mandatory field for Lease, Rent and Sale options.  However, if you are selling by Auction, Tender or Private Treaty then the sale price is zeroed.

At the end of the day we want to eliminate all obstacles that might cause a potential buyer not to call you.
