House Finder

 

Current and Historic Property Listings available in QuickMap® SalesView 

 

House Finder is free to QuickMap® SalesView subscribers and provides current and historic data on properties advertised for sale. This data will link seamlessly with QuickMap's property boundaries, valuation, ownership information and aerial photography to give you the most comprehensive and integrated property information source on the market.  With in excess of 300,000 listings, House Finder is  easily the most comprehensive dataset on the market.   

 

For  QuickMap® SalesView users, House Finder means you can 

 

Provide accurate appraisals which include properties that are currently being advertised. We think being able to actually see inside the house is a huge help.

Compare listings from multiple sources. We have the most comprehensive link between LINZ parcel, Title/Owner, REINZ historic sales data and Headway Systems historic sales data in New Zealand.  This link means you can easily compare data from the various sources which reduces errors and provides comfort in the knowledge you are using the most accurate and trusted source of property information available in New Zealand.  

 

QuickMap House Finder

Also added to this release is an update to the schools data, and the ability to include schools in Market Appraisal reports;

Other details include standard QuickMap® SalesView information such as LINZ parcel, Title/Owner, REINZ historic sales data, Headway Systems sales data and Local Authority historic sales data in New Zealand.  

Other enhancements in Version 7.3.142 available to all QuickMap® users include;

 

NZTM grid layer. The new New Zealand Transverse Mercator 2000 projection (NZTM2000) will be used for New Zealand's future Topo50 1:50,000 mapping. Version 7.3 adds a new NZTM Grid to QuickMap under the Topo group.   

 

Add support for NZTM ecw files. Adding NZTM images to QuickMap is now easy. Just drag/drop the files into QuickMap. If the images are in NZTM format, QuickMap will reproject them on the fly.

 

Add support for JPEG2000 (jp2) files. Just drag/drop them into QuickMap. The great thing about JPEG2000 is that it supports transparency, but be warned they are a little slower to draw than ecw files.

 

Add ability to export points in dxf format. This allows Geodetic marks and other point features to be imported into applications such as 12D. Also added to DXF export is Corporate Owner.

 

Updated Schools data and the ability to include schools in the QuickMap® SalesView Market Appraisal

 

NZTM grid layer.

 

Allow point and line text size to be scaled up, down or WYSIWYG (What you see is what you get) when printing. This feature is accessed through the symbology editor points label form.

 

Add address to MortgageView property reports

 

Add ability to hide/show layer control and info window via button on map.

 

Add Text Zoom box to attribute editor for easier data entry and line feed values.

 

Miscellaneous; Some people have started getting the error "Convert failed to create coordinate transformation" as a result of some other non-Quickmap application installing incomplete shared components.  We have worked around this problem by compiling our own version of these shared components. 

 

Stop Layer control dialog box from disappearing
