Given the $928,000 ask, is this worth your time?

Why this ask?

  • FactListed for sale, asking $928,000(Listing record · 7 Aug 2026)
  • CalculationLand 698 m² against a 109 m² dwelling — the land is most of what is being bought.(Districts calculation)
  • CalculationAsk is 0% below the South Lake median recorded sale ($931,000, n=37, last 12 months).(Districts calculation from recorded sales)
  • CalculationIf it leased at South Lake's advertised median rent ($670/wk), implied gross yield would be 3.75% — this is not a rent for this listing.(Districts scenario calculation)

What could make it worth more?

  • InterpretationA large lot with a small dwelling means the value case rests on the land and what the zone allows on it, not the house.

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.

Events are recorded observations from public listings, kept with their source and date. Missing values are shown as unknown, never estimated.

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 698 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 $670/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

Gross yield if leased at the suburb aggregate is 3.8%. 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

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 698 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.

R20 Zoning with Exciting Retain & Subdivide Potential

ALL OFFERS PRESENTED THROUGH OPENN OFFERS PLATFORM!

Zoned R20 and positioned for retain-and-subdivide potential (subject to relevant planning approvals), the existing residence can remain while a proposed rear lot, with street frontage may accommodate a 1x1 dwelling under the local council structure plan, opening the door to outstanding development upside.

Position, presentation and practicality come together in perfect harmony at this superbly-renovated 3 bedroom 1 bathroom residence that refuses to compromise.

Read the full description

Sitting proudly on a commanding corner block within a desirable cul-de-sac setting, this solid brick-and-tile beauty offers easy living within and exceptional flexibility outside. With parking space in abundance and modern comfort already taken care of, all that's left to do is unpack your things.

Out front, there is ample room for everybody's car - as well as a boat, caravan, trailer or all three. A pitched single carport benefits from rear drive-through access into a large powered lock-up workshop shed with a remote-controlled roller door. It's every budding "tradie's" dream.

There are even double side-access gates that secure another additional parking bay off the property's second street frontage. Separate double gates secure a low-maintenance backyard - with lawn and stress-free gardens - for the kids and pets to play without worry. Framed by stunning frangipani and the accompanied by a melody of birdsong, the rear yard is overlooked by a huge pitched outdoor patio-entertaining area with storage and an under-cover clothesline.

Inside, a spacious and carpeted front living room features a lovely north-facing bay window and split-system air-conditioning for climate control, leading into a commodious open-plan dining and kitchen area with another split-system air-conditioner and direct alfresco and garden access.

The stylish kitchen itself comprises of a breakfast bar, a storage pantry, double sinks, tiled splashbacks, a stainless-steel range hood, stainless-steel Westinghouse four-burner gas-cooktop and under-bench-oven appliances, a stainless-steel Bosch dishwasher and splendid views out to the yard to keep an eye on the young ones. The adjacent laundry enjoys internal shopper's entry via the carport, as well as playing host to tiled splashbacks and over-head and under-bench storage cupboards.

A generous carpeted north-facing master bedroom is the pick of the bunch, fitted with triple-sliding-door built-in wardrobes, a ceiling fan and a split-system air-conditioner. Easy-care timber-look floors, ceiling fans and full-height double-sliding-door built-in robes are commonplace within the two spare bedrooms - a north-facing second bedroom and a third bedroom that looks out to the yard. The second bedroom has its own split-system air-conditioning, as well.

An impressively-revamped bathroom services the sleeping quarters with its shower, powder vanity, under-bench storage and skylight. A separate toilet and a linen press with an over-head cupboard complete the package.

Stroll around the corner to South Lake Primary School and the lush Hop Bush and Allamanda Parks, with a close proximity to bus stops, Lakeland Senior High School, the Lakes Shopping Centre, wonderful community sporting and fitness facilities, The Berrigan Bar & Bistro, the freeway, additional public transport at Cockburn Central, Cockburn Gateway Shopping City and the magnificent Cockburn ARC Aquatic and Recreation Centre not to be underestimated, either.
