Corrections Policy

Corrections Policy

My Realtor in New Zealand commits to producing accurate and reliable content. Our articles provide valuable information for real estate agents, branch managers, salespeople, and general readers across New Zealand’s property market. We recognize the importance of factual correctness to maintain trust and inform our audience effectively.

We take all necessary steps to verify information before publication. If an error occurs, we are dedicated to correcting it promptly and transparently.

Our Commitment to Accuracy

Factual accuracy forms the foundation of all content on myrealtor.nz. Our editorial process includes research and verification to ensure the details presented are correct. This dedication applies to market analysis, agent profiles, and property advice alike.

We rely on credible sources for all our reporting. Our goal is to serve as a trustworthy resource for individuals interested in New Zealand real estate.

Types of Corrections

We categorize errors and their corresponding corrections into three main types:

Minor Fixes

Minor fixes involve small issues that do not alter the meaning or factual accuracy of an article. Examples include typos, grammatical errors, punctuation mistakes, or slight rephrasing for clarity. These corrections are typically made without an explicit public note.

Significant Corrections

Significant corrections address factual errors, incorrect names, dates, figures, or statements that could mislead readers or misrepresent information. These errors affect the core understanding or context of the content. Such corrections receive a clear public notification.

Retractions

A retraction occurs when an article contains fundamental factual errors or is based on information later found to be false or unreliable. This means the entire premise of the content is flawed. In such cases, the article will be fully retracted.

How Corrections Are Noted

Transparency guides how we note corrections on myrealtor.nz.

For Minor Fixes

We do not typically add a public note for minor typographical or grammatical errors. These small adjustments improve readability without changing the article’s substantive meaning.

For Significant Corrections

When a significant correction is made, we will add an “Editor’s Note” to the article. This note will appear at the top or bottom of the corrected content. The note will clearly state what was corrected and the date of the correction.

For Retractions

If an article is retracted, its content will be replaced with an “Editor’s Note” explaining the reason for the retraction. The original content will either be removed entirely or clearly marked as retracted to prevent confusion.

Reporting an Error

We welcome our readers to help us maintain accuracy. If you believe you have identified an error in an article on myrealtor.nz, please report it to us. Your input helps us uphold our quality standards for content related to New Zealand real estate.

To report an error, please send an email to editorial@myrealtor.nz. Include the following details:

  • The exact URL (web address) of the article containing the error.
  • A clear description of the error.
  • The proposed correction.
  • Any supporting evidence or sources that validate the correction.

Timeline for Reviewing Reported Errors

Upon receiving an error report, we will acknowledge your email within 2 business days. Our editorial team will then review the reported error thoroughly. We aim to investigate and decide on the necessary action within 5 business days of acknowledgment.

You will receive an update regarding our findings and the steps we plan to take. The time needed to implement a correction may vary based on its complexity.

Transparency About Correction History

We commit to transparency regarding changes made to our published content. Any significant correction will feature a clear “Editor’s Note” visible within the article itself. This note provides a public record of the correction, including the date it was made.

We believe this open approach strengthens the trust our readers place in My Realtor in New Zealand. This policy was last updated in March 2026.
