REINZ Law Books

The REINZ Real Estate Legislation Guide and its accompanying Law for Real Estate Professionals in New Zealand book comprise a new set of resources provided by the Real Estate Institute of New Zealand (REINZ) to assist all real estate professionals to conduct their business legally.

The law books will help real estate professionals to:

  • Identify their compliance obligations,
  • Interpret and understand the law, and
  • Apply the law to their real estate business.

The two books will be supplied as a set, since they complement each other. They replace the New Zealand Real Estate Law book in the blue ringbinder, that has been out of print for some time.



Law for Real Estate Professionals in New Zealand contains the legislation which is relevant to real estate agents and salespeople when conducting their business activities.

It includes the following Acts, Rules and Regulations:

  • Real Estate Agents Act 1976
  • Real Estate Agents Regulations 1977
  • Real Estate Agents Audit Regulations 1977
  • Real Estate Institute of New Zealand Rules
  • Fair Trading Act 1976
  • Residential Tenancies Act 1986


The REINZ Real Estate Legislation Guide interprets the legislation in lay terms, and is designed to help the reader easily understand their legal obligations.

It covers:

  • Real Estate Law and Ethics
  • Land and Property Law
  • Marketing and Sales
  • Letting and Leasing
  • Contracts
  • Employment (including Health and Safety)
  • Tax, and
  • Running a Company


Who are the books for?
All real estate professionals must be fully conversant in the law relating to real estate. They are also relevant to students studying for the Salesperson’s Certificate of Approval, and to any person interested in real estate law.

If you require a hard copy for your office or for personal use they are available for purchase, competitively priced at $20.00 incl GST for the set of two books and the Useful Clauses Book.
