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: Queensland schedules from 2026-07-01. Ongoing council rates and land tax are not included.
Pre-filled with Benowa'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
QLDPlanning 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.” Nearby development applications are not loaded. This lot’s own applications are a separate question.
Rental
No advertised rent is recorded. Suburb median rent $1,106/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. Nearby development applications are not loaded. This lot’s own applications are a separate question. 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 5.4%. 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. Net yield / holding costs are not estimated outside NSW without inventing land tax.
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.

Feature Summary
Set on a 401sqm block in the heart of Benowa, this five-bedroom multilevel home offers genuine space across two levels, a modern kitchen, timber floors in good condition, and a front deck that looks out toward the Surfers Paradise skyline. Offered at $1,100,000 by private treaty, it pairs comfortable family living with one of the most central school and lifestyle pockets on the Gold Coast — directly opposite the TAFE Queensland Gold Coast campus and a short drive from Surfers Paradise.
Location Advantages
Benowa is one of the Gold Coast's most centrally positioned suburbs, sitting between Surfers Paradise to the east and the established residential and education precinct around Benowa Road to the south. The home sits directly opposite the TAFE Queensland Gold Coast (Ashmore campus), placing tertiary study, transport, and everyday services within immediate reach. The Surfers Paradise beachfront, dining, and entertainment precinct is a short drive east, while local shopping, parks, and schooling are all within a few minutes by car.
Families are particularly well served here: the property sits close to Benowa State High School — the only accredited French Bilingual High School in Australia, internationally recognised for its French Immersion program — as well as Benowa State School and St Kevin's Catholic School. Green space is equally close, with Benowa Park nearby and the Gold Coast Regional Botanic Gardens a few minutes away.

Why You'll Love This Home
With five bedrooms spread across two levels, this home offers the kind of flexible space that's hard to find on a low-maintenance 401sqm block. The upstairs level keeps the main living, dining, and three bedrooms together, while the downstairs rumpus and two further bedrooms create a natural separation — ideal for older children, extended family, guests, or a work-from-home setup. The modern kitchen and timber floors give the home a clean, move-in-ready feel, and the large laundry offers a practical path to adding a second bathroom down the track if you choose to renovate further.
The standout is the front deck, where the Surfers Paradise skyline forms the backdrop to your morning coffee or evening wind-down. Combined with the rear patio and entertaining area, the home gives you two distinct outdoor zones to enjoy. And with the TAFE campus directly across the road, sought-after schooling minutes away, and the beach a short drive east, the location does as much heavy lifting as the home itself.
