Districts View
No upside evidence detected in the data Districts holds for this lot.
No detected risks — but see the checklist: absence of evidence is not an all-clear.
Each line above is labelled. A fact is quoted from the named source, with its date. A calculation is worked out by Districts from those facts — you can check the arithmetic. An interpretation is Districts' opinion of what the evidence means, not a fact, a valuation, or advice. Anything we haven't retrieved yet is marked as missing rather than treated as a pass.

Estimates only, at standard investor rates — no first-home or owner-occupier concessions applied. Not included: lenders mortgage insurance (usually applies when borrowing more than 80% of the price), loan application and settlement fees from your lender, the foreign-purchaser duty surcharge, and building insurance — in Queensland the property is at your risk from the first business day after signing, not from settlement. Verify with your conveyancer.
Stamp duty and transfer fees: New South Wales schedules from 2026-07-01. Ongoing council rates and land tax are not included.
Based on the low end of the asking range, not a contract price.
Pre-filled with West Kempsey's advertised median rent — not a rent for this listing.
Gross yield is weekly rent × 52 ÷ price. Net yield subtracts operating expenses. Cashflow then subtracts interest-only interest on price × LVR. Tax, vacancies, and principal repayments are not included.
Planning
Planning data is being calculated
Data unavailable
Source
Planning facts are copied from official government GIS where available. Where an official property PDF exists (VicPlan, PlanBuild), Districts stores and serves that original document. Neither is a planning certificate, survey, or advice.
Site
Terrain has not been calculated for this property yet.
Slope is calculated on a projected metric grid from a public DEM clip of the official parcel. This is not a survey, engineering, or insurance assessment.
Flood exposure has not been retrieved from any source for this property yet. Unknown is not the same as clear.
Bushfire exposure has not been retrieved from any source for this property yet. Unknown is not the same as clear.
Heritage listing has not been retrieved from any source for this property yet. Unknown is not the same as clear.
Records
Events are recorded observations from public listings, kept with their source and date. Missing values are shown as unknown, never estimated.
Capital growth
NSWPlanning layers have not been retrieved for this property yet. A suburb median or growth rate is not a reason this particular lot would outperform. Funded catalyst catchments are not loaded. A TOD badge is not this product.
Official flood overlay has not been retrieved (pending). Missing layer is unknown, not “no.” NSW has a statewide DA API. Nearby (100–800 m) applications are not loaded for this property yet.
Rental
No advertised rent is recorded. Suburb median rent $472/week — not this address. An inferred likely-rent range is not shown until official bond series are loaded for this dwelling type and bedrooms.
Current comparable rental listings within 400 m of this lot are not loaded. NSW has a statewide DA API. Nearby (100–800 m) applications are not loaded for this property yet. Supply pressure needs comparable listings near this lot plus a nearby DA pipeline. Neither is loaded. Suburb vacancy or leased-tape days are not this property’s competition.
Gross yield if leased at the suburb aggregate is 5.0%. The yield that matters is the one on achieved rent, which has not been inferred for this address. Net yield (land tax, rates, insurance, vacancy) is not loaded. NSW net yield needs land tax and VG inputs that are not loaded. Gross yield from listings is not net yield.
Verdict
Districts view
Not enough official evidence yet to underwrite this as an investment.
Detail
The same ten questions apply to every property. Missing flood, nearby DAs, achieved rents, or lot geometry is unknown — not “no.”
Do not treat a suburb median, an advertised yield, or a listing score as the case for this lot.
The evidence loaded so far isn't enough on its own to change a buy, offer, or walk-away decision for this property.
Evidence
Districts asks the same ten questions of every property. If one shows as unknown, that data isn't published for this state or hasn't been loaded yet — the question stays visible so you can see exactly what's missing.

Listing material
Listed by Kelly Flanagan Real EstateBuilt in the 60's and still as good now as it was then!
You can't go past a 1960's home: built with the biggest mill sawn timbers they all stand the test of time. They stay strong, they are still hip and swinging and so easy to work with to renovate.
This beauty is located in a little quiet street, on a level block on top of a soft hill and within easy walking to High Schools, Tafe, Hospital, General Store and Bowling Club.
If you want easy access for both people and all types of vehicles then this one is a stand-out! It's only three easy steps to get into the front of the house, or a ramp at the back. As for vehicles, can park a caravan plus a boat plus a trailer in the back yard, one car in the garage and at least five or 6 cars on the driveway! Yes indeed, this is a property that you can utilize to its fullest potential.
Even the garage is decked out for functionality with big strong timber workbenches and shelves on two sides with plenty of power points and lighting.
Plus, there are three great garden sheds and a fenced off vegie patch - the 'tinkerer' in the family will be very happy indeed.
- 733.5sqm level block with easy vehicle/caravan access into the back yard
- Neat and solid 1960's hardwood frame home
- 3 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, 1 car
- Full vinyl clad exterior walls/eaves (never paint again)
- Recently painted timber fascia's and iron roof
- Brick piers/ant caps
- Aluminum windows/doors
- Plaster interior – some absolutely stunning cornice work
- Sunny open-plan living – full of sunlight and cross breeze
- Funky original kitchen – solid painted timber/laminated tops – near new electric stove/oven
- Big dining area
- Big lounge room – near new slow combustion fire
- Stylish 2.5" timber floorboards underneath (would look fantastic if polished)
- Big bedrooms – large built-in robes to main bedroom
- Front foyer separating visitors from living spaces
- Small back sunroom
- Separate toilet in laundry
- Large single garage with huge work benches/shelves/power points/lighting
- 3 garden sheds

This is such an easy, enjoyable, reliable place to live, relax and park in! Sure there's maybe things you wish to do one day but rest assured you have a perfect foundation and a good solid build to rely upon.
It's vacant and ready. If you are an investor – you have permission to advertise for a tenant from exchange of contracts so you will have rent from day after settlement.
Call any day, anytime.
Agent declares interest – this is my mummy and daddy's investment home.
