The short version
CoreLogic is the New Zealand standard for title searches and valuations, and it does nothing for occupier prospecting. That gap is exactly what SCAYLED was built to close.
- CoreLogic NZ: the definitive New Zealand source for title, ownership, valuation, and historic transaction data. Brand-trusted since the 1980s (formerly Terranet, Headway, Valocity), it sits on agency desktops across the country.
- SCAYLED: the territory intelligence platform for industrial and logistics desks. It maps the occupiers around a listing, returns the verified decision-maker for each, lets you scan any target area or estate directly, and tracks the movement signals across your patch that precede a requirement, so you know who operates from the shed next door long before the deal reaches the open market.
The question is not "which one should I buy." It is "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
- Mapping every occupier in the precinct around a listing, not just the building itself
- Identifying the decision-maker at each operator (Operations Director, Facility Manager, Managing Director)
- Returning verified email addresses checked against live domain records
- Flagging same-building and direct-neighbour matches, the highest-converting leads in industrial
- Scanning any target area, estate, or occupier set directly to build a named prospect list
- Tracking fortnightly movement signals across a patch so occupiers are reached before the requirement goes live
- Drafting personalised outreach from the listing context, sent from your own inbox
Where the overlap is
There is not much. CoreLogic tells you who owns the building. SCAYLED tells you who operates inside it, who is moving nearby, and how to reach the decision-maker. Those are different people, different lookups, and different workflows, which is precisely why the two platforms stack rather than compete.
The one narrow overlap: if an owner-occupier runs a business from a freehold they own, CoreLogic would show the owner and 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 is not published, and the commercial spend typically falls along these lines:
- Smaller agencies: a per-user monthly subscription
- Mid-size agencies: often bundled with valuation services
- Larger agencies: enterprise contracts scaled to portfolio size
Usually paid at the agency level. Individual agents do not subscribe directly.
SCAYLED
- Access by request, priced per agent rather than per agency
- First three occupier requirements free, so the platform is judged on live conversations
- Full platform on every paid seat: neighbour scans, target scans, and fortnightly movement signals
Paid per agent, not per agency.
The practical difference: CoreLogic is a boardroom decision at the agency level, while SCAYLED is adopted seat by seat at the desk level. Access to SCAYLED is granted by request and a transactional agent can be prospecting the same day. CoreLogic usually requires a procurement cycle.
When to use which
You have just been briefed on a listing and need to prospect before it goes live
→ SCAYLED. Scan the listing, map the occupiers across the surrounding precinct, and call the same-building and direct-neighbour tenants first. This is the core SCAYLED workflow, and it turns a job that used to take the best part of a day of driving and searching into a single scan.
A vendor wants a CMA for their property before signing an agency agreement
→ CoreLogic. You need comparable sales, capital valuation, and sale history. SCAYLED does not replicate this. CoreLogic is genuinely the best property-data source in New Zealand for that job.
You are 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 are 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 named, verified list of target tenants to bring to a campaign, plus the movement signals showing which occupiers nearby are most likely to move. Walking in with a prepared shortlist of verified prospects already identified is the single strongest pitch move.
You are tracking market movements in Auckland industrial over the last year
→ CoreLogic. Historic sales data and transaction analysis. SCAYLED does not do retrospective market analysis.
You are calling on a vacant building to find the owner
→ CoreLogic for the freeholder. SCAYLED for the surrounding operators who would pay to expand next door.
How to think about the two together
Across New Zealand industrial brokerage, CoreLogic NZ is on every desktop and earns its place: it is genuinely the best property-data source in the country for title searches, valuations, and sale history. What it does not do is tell you who operates from the shed, who is expanding two doors down, or how to reach the decision-maker before a requirement reaches the market.
Finding the operators next to a listing used to mean half a day driving the estate and searching business names by hand. That is the work SCAYLED removes: it maps the precinct around the listing, lets you scan any target estate directly, and surfaces the fortnightly movement signals across a patch, so the prospecting is done before the first call.
For desks weighted toward valuation work, CoreLogic is the priority. For desks weighted toward transactional work and occupier outreach, SCAYLED is the priority. Serious teams run both, and together they cost less than a single closed deal.
