The short version
They solve different problems. Most NZ commercial agents who are serious about prospecting use both.
- CoreLogic NZ — the definitive NZ source for title, ownership, valuation, and historic transaction data. Brand-trusted since the 1980s (formerly Terranet, Headway, Valocity).
- SCAYLED — live occupier scanning and verified decision-maker contacts for neighbour-first prospecting. Built in 2025 after a decade in industrial brokerage.
The question isn't "which one should I buy." It's "what am I trying to do on this listing." The answer usually requires both.
What each tool actually does
CoreLogic NZ is built for
- Looking up a specific property's title, ownership, and sale history
- Pulling rating valuation and capital valuation data
- Running comparable sales reports for appraisal and valuation
- Desktop due diligence on a target property
- Historic market analysis across suburbs and property types
- Enterprise reporting for agencies managing large portfolios
SCAYLED is built for
- Scanning every occupier inside a radius around a listing (200 m or 375 m)
- Identifying the decision-maker at each operator (Operations Director, Facility Manager, Managing Director)
- Verifying email addresses against live domain records (98% deliverability)
- Flagging same-building matches (the highest-converting lead in industrial)
- Drafting personalised outreach based on the listing context
- Moving from "address" to "twenty verified contacts with drafted emails" in two minutes
Where the overlap is
There isn't much. CoreLogic tells you who owns the building. SCAYLED tells you who operates inside it and how to reach them. Those are different people, different lookups, different workflows.
The one narrow overlap: if an owner-occupier runs a business from a freehold they own, CoreLogic would show the owner; SCAYLED shows the operating business. For that case, SCAYLED surfaces both roles on the same record.

Pricing breakdown
CoreLogic NZ
Per-seat enterprise pricing, negotiated per agency. Public list pricing isn't published, but based on agent surveys and agency disclosures, typical spend ranges:
- Smaller agencies: ~$200–400 NZD per user per month
- Mid-size agencies: often bundled with valuation services
- Larger agencies: enterprise contracts into the tens of thousands per month
Usually paid at the agency level; individual agents don't subscribe directly.
SCAYLED
- Free Trial: $0, 20 credits one-time, 1 listing
- Starter: $129 NZD / month, 200 credits, up to 5 listings
- Pro: $249 NZD / month, 425 credits, up to 10 listings
Paid per agent, not per agency.
The practical difference: CoreLogic is a boardroom decision at the agency level. SCAYLED is a corporate card decision at the agent level. An agent can sign up for SCAYLED and be scanning inside five minutes; CoreLogic usually requires a procurement cycle.
When to use which
You've just been briefed on a listing and need to prospect before it goes live
→ SCAYLED. Drop the address, scan the 200 m radius, call the same-building tenants first. This is the exact scenario SCAYLED was built for.
A vendor wants a CMA for their property before signing an agency agreement
→ CoreLogic.You need comparable sales, capital valuation, and sale history. SCAYLED doesn't replicate this.
You're going after an off-market acquisition in a specific industrial estate
→ Both. CoreLogic to identify the freeholder of each building in the estate. SCAYLED to find the operator inside and the decision-maker to approach.
You're pitching for a new mandate against a competing agency
→ Both.CoreLogic gives you the track record of the vendor's property; SCAYLED gives you a prepared list of target tenants you could bring to a campaign. Walking in with twenty verified prospects already identified is the single strongest pitch move.
You're tracking market movements in Auckland industrial over the last year
→ CoreLogic.Historic sales data and transaction analysis. SCAYLED doesn't do retrospective market analysis.
You're calling on a vacant building to find the owner
→ CoreLogic for the freeholder. SCAYLEDfor the surrounding operators who'd pay to expand next door.
What I tell agents who ask
I was an industrial and logistics agent for ten years before building SCAYLED. I still pay for CoreLogic NZ. SCAYLED wasn't built to replace it — it was built to do the thing CoreLogic doesn't: turn a listing address into a list of verified decision-makers in two minutes instead of six hours.
If you have to pick one and you do mostly valuation work, pick CoreLogic. If you have to pick one and you do mostly transactional work and cold outreach, pick SCAYLED. If you're serious about the business, run both. They cost less together than a single closed deal.
