Given the $529,000 ask, is this worth your time?

Why this ask?

  • FactListed for sale, asking $529,000(Listing record · 22 July 2026)
  • FactLand 662 m²; no building size recorded.(Property record)

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.

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: Victoria schedules from 2026-07-01. Ongoing council rates and land tax are not included.

Rental yield

Capital growth

VIC

Why this lot, not just this suburb

Why could this property outperform?

Planning 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.

What could kill that thesis?

Confidence: low

Official flood overlay has not been retrieved (pending). Missing layer is unknown, not “no.” Victoria has no public statewide property-level DA API. Nearby pipeline is unknown.

Rental

Income, competition, and yield

What will it realistically rent for?

No advertised rent and no suburb rent aggregate are loaded. Official bond files are not loaded. Listing rent and suburb aggregates are evidence, not this address’s rent.

What competition will it face?

Current comparable rental listings within 400 m of this lot are not loaded. Victoria has no public statewide property-level DA API. Nearby pipeline is unknown. 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.

Listing material

Listed by PRD Ballarat

Park Opposite. Space to Grow. Room to Entertain.

Positioned in a quiet pocket of Cardigan Village directly opposite the local reserve, this is the sort of location young families spend years trying to find. With extensive play equipment, two tennis courts, a half basketball/netball court, shaded BBQ area and a BMX track literally across the road, there's no need to load the kids into the car, they can simply walk over and enjoy it!

Inside, the home offers a practical floorplan with three generous bedrooms, all fitted with built in robes. The master bedroom is spacious and has access to a private ensuite. The expansive open plan living and dining area is enhanced by its high raked ceiling, creating a real sense of space while large windows fill the home with natural light throughout the day.

The kitchen is well designed with ample bench space and excellent storage, making it equally suited to everyday family life or entertaining. Adding another point of difference is the separate spa room, complete with glass sliding doors opening to a small bar area, an ideal space to unwind or party with friends.

Read the full description

Outside, the home continues to impress with a covered BBQ area, secure gated side access and plenty of room to accommodate multiple vehicles, a caravan, boat or trailer. Completing the package is a substantial 8.7m x 6.1m (approx.) garage, providing excellent storage or workshop space.

Located only approximately 10 minutes from Lucas Shopping Centre, this is an outstanding opportunity for first home buyers looking to establish themselves in a family friendly community, or investors seeking a solid home in a location with broad tenant appeal.
