International Property Measurement Standards (IPMS)

The International Property Measurement Standard (IPMS) is a standardised and globally applicable method for measuring property. It aims to address current inconsistencies in the way property of all types is measured from one market to the next, improving property market data and providing greater transparency.

The standard is the collaborative effort of professional and non-profit organisations from around the world, including Property Council New Zealand.
