The New Zealand home-buying line

Buying a house has a route.
Nobody ever hands you the map.

HomeStation lays out the New Zealand home-buying process as a map — 35 stops across six lines. It tracks your deadlines, reads your LIM and builder's reports in plain English, and always shows what comes next.

Free for your first property. Built for first-home buyers, movers and investors.

  1. M1 Work out what you can spend
  2. D1 Find a property worth an offer
  3. P2 Order the LIM and the reports
  4. D4 Go unconditional
  5. D7 Settlement and keys

What you get

Four things that stop the panic

01

See where you are

Every stage is a station on a line. See the whole journey at once, which stations are behind you, and exactly which one you're standing in. Each station holds its own list of what to do there — so you get the overview and the detail, not one or the other.

02

Your documents, read for you

Upload a LIM or a builder's report and get back the parts that matter in plain English — unconsented work, drainage, weathertightness, boundary issues. Export any property as a clean PDF to send to your lawyer.

03

Compare without guessing

Line up to four properties side by side — your must-haves, what each one's reports turned up, what's due next. HomeStation never picks a winner. It just stops you comparing from memory.

04

Everything in one place

The LIM, the builder's report, the title, the agreement — all stored against the property they belong to, not scattered across six email threads. Come back in a month and it's still there.

How it works

Four steps, then you're on the map

  1. Add the property you're looking at

    An address is enough to start. Add more as you go.

  2. See your route

    The journey lays out in order, with your current station marked and the deadlines that matter counting down.

  3. Upload the reports as they arrive

    LIM, builder's report, title. Each one comes back summarised, with the findings worth asking about pulled out.

  4. Compare, decide, and take it to your lawyer

    Put properties side by side, then export a report your lawyer can actually work from.
