What should you know about this lot before spending serious money?

Why this property?

  • FactLast recorded sale $753,500 (26 June 2024).(Recorded sale)
  • FactLand 787 m²; no building size recorded.(Property record)
  • CalculationRecorded House sales in Forrestfield (last 5 years) with land size: median $1,113/m² of land (n=130). Districts calculation from recorded sales — not a valuation.(Districts recorded sales)

What could make it worth more?

No upside evidence detected in the data Districts holds for this lot.

What could make it worth less?

No detected risks — but see the checklist: absence of evidence is not an all-clear.

What should you verify next?

  1. 1Official planning layers are still retrieving for this parcel — check back before relying on zoning or overlay absence.
  2. 2No hazard layer has been retrieved — confirm flood, bushfire and heritage exposure from council mapping before an offer.

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.

Capital growth

WA

Why this lot, not just this suburb

Why could this property outperform?

WA full cadastre is not free for commercial use. Lot optionality cannot be computed from official geometry. Listed land size is 787 m² — that is not official geometry. 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.

What could kill that thesis?

Confidence: low

Official flood overlay has not been retrieved (pending). Missing layer is unknown, not “no.” Nearby development applications are not loaded for this property.

Rental

Income, competition, and yield

What will it realistically rent for?

Confidence: low

No advertised rent is recorded. Suburb median rent $693/week — not this address. An inferred likely-rent range is not shown until official bond series are loaded for this dwelling type and bedrooms.

What competition will it face?

Current comparable rental listings within 400 m of this lot are not loaded. Nearby development applications are not loaded for this property. 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.

What does the yield actually look like?

Confidence: low

Yield cannot be shown without both a price and a rent figure. Net yield is not estimated from gross advertising copy. Net yield / holding costs are not estimated outside NSW without inventing land tax.

Verdict

What this means for this property

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

What is known for this property

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.

1 of 10 questions answered so far

  • Development optionality of this lot

    Unknown

    WA full cadastre is not free for commercial use. Lot optionality cannot be computed from official geometry. Listed land size is 787 m² — that is not official geometry.

  • Nearby development pipeline

    Unknown

    Nearby development applications are not loaded for this property.

  • Honest achievable rent

    Knownlow

    This is not “bond data says this address leases for $X.” The comparable figure is a suburb advertised/median rent, not this property. Official bond files (postcode or suburb × type × bedrooms) are not loaded yet.

  • Rental supply pressure

    Unknown

    Supply pressure needs comparable listings near this lot plus a nearby DA pipeline. Neither is loaded.

  • Why is this cheap?

    Unknown

    The constraint stack has not been retrieved for this lot, so Districts cannot explain a discount versus land size.

  • Lot-level flood

    Unknown

    Official flood overlay has not been retrieved (pending). Missing layer is unknown, not “no.”

  • Catalyst exposure

    Unknown

    Funded catalyst catchments are not loaded. A TOD badge is not this product.

  • This lot's DA history

    Unknown

    Development applications have not been queried for this parcel.

  • Statutory land value versus ask

    Unknown

    Statutory land value is not available as free bulk data in this jurisdiction. Do not fake it with a suburb median.

  • Net yield / holding costs

    Unknown

    Net yield / holding costs are not estimated outside NSW without inventing land tax.

UNDER OFFER -Ultimately Awesome!

There's no denying that when you list all the features this home has to offer, it trumps most of the other properties on the market right now.

Back in 1969 (possibly in the summer), this home was originally built as a 3x1 and that was about it. But over the years the property has steadily evolved into a totally rad, 3 bedroom plus study, 2 bathroom home which now also includes:

• Over 60sqm of powered workshop PLUS mezzanine

Read the full description

• Above ground pool

• Timber decking and patio chill zone

• Multiple living areas

• Study

• EPIC gardens

• Dual driveway

• Side access

• Massive rainwater tank

The central kitchen has tonnes of storage and some good bench space, and overlooks the rear lounge room and beyond to the backyard entertaining are - which is one hell of a venue for your house warming party!

The house essentially has 2 master bedrooms now too. The original 1969 master bedroom at the front of the home, and the new master bedroom which has its own ensuite!

Meanwhile the surrounding area has also been evolving, and the now enriched neighbourhood includes parks, shops, doctors, school, childcare a golf course and more!

And there were more changes! the zoning was upgraded to R25/40 making it a triplex development site too, or a great retain and build project!

That said, one of the biggest and best features here, in my opinion, is the massive workshop, which not only includes a mezzanine for extra storage, but also a winch for yoinking things up (including salesmen, I recently discovered)

This is, ultimately awesome, and sure to be snapped up soon, so without further ado, it's time to call The Mitchell Brothers
