Place a third party (safe and sanitary) report on your property file
What is a third party (safe and sanitary) report?
A third party (safe and sanitary) report is an independent report from a third party. The report verifies the condition of a building or building work carried out before 1 July 1992. The work may have been done with or without a building permit - at that time, there was no building consent process as we know it today.
For information about how we deal with unauthorised building work read:
When you need a third party (safe and sanitary) report
You may want to place a third party report on your property file if:
- you want to verify the condition of a building or building work carried out before 1 July 1992, when selling or buying it

You can submit the report to us, as a matter of public record, so that we can add it to your property file.
You may also need to submit a third party report with your building consent application, when moving or relocating a second-hand building.
Who can prepare a third party (safe and sanitary) report
A person suitably qualified to prepare a third party report may be:
