It is your job to order a LIM from the local council where the property is located. The exact cost of a LIM is dependent on each local council. For example, Auckland Council charges $387 for a standard LIM, delivered within 10 working days, and $522 for its urgent service: How to order a Land Information Memorandum (LIM) (aucklandcouncil.govt.nz).
