Revaluation 2014 Update
Revaluation 2014 is drawing to a close and notices will be in letterboxes in mid-November.

The CV is based on recent sales. Ahead of notices going out in November, indicative values by suburb will be published in newspapers and on the council website in October. Visit aucklandcouncil.govt.nz/revaluation for more information.
