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: Northern Territory schedules from 2026-07-01. Ongoing council rates and land tax are not included.
Pre-filled with Howard Springs'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
NTNT bulk cadastre is not an open commercial product. Lot optionality cannot be computed from official geometry. Listed land size is 20,000 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.
Official flood overlay has not been retrieved (pending). Missing layer is unknown, not “no.” Nearby development applications are not loaded for this property.
Rental
No advertised rent is recorded. Suburb median rent $400/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 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.
Gross yield if leased at the suburb aggregate is 1.6%. 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.

Listing material
Listed by Elders Top End GroupSet across approximately five acres in tightly held Howard Springs, this unique dual-residence property brings together established tropical living, extensive infrastructure, dual rental income and plenty of scope to make the property your own.
From the moment you arrive, there is a distinctly Territory feel. Established palms, bromeliads, ferns, bird of paradise, gingers and monsteras create cool, green spaces around the homes, complemented by an irrigation system, vegetable garden and chook shed already set up and ready to go.
The property has been thoughtfully divided into four separately fenced areas with internal and external gates, making it well suited to those wanting space for animals, a couple of horses or simply separation between the homes, gardens and paddocks. Both residences have their own driveway, power, shedding and secure fenced areas, providing an impressive level of independence and privacy.
The elevated main residence captures views across the tropical gardens and paddocks and is full of rural character, with polished timber floors, louvres and a supersized living area. The kitchen features a striking wall of windows that fills the space with natural light and looks out across the property.
There are three bedrooms upstairs, while underneath the home is a large covered entertaining area, enclosed laundry, and second bathroom. There is also scope to further utilise the space underneath the home in the future.
A substantial workshop with concrete pad and fans provides excellent space for a home business, projects, storage, boats, caravans or additional vehicles.
The second residence is a ground-level two-bedroom home with its own private setting, spacious in-ground swimming pool with shade sail and undercover parking. Inside is a central living and dining area with kitchenette, while the bathroom features a freestanding bathtub overlooking the gardens and rear paddock – a beautiful example of the property's relaxed rural character.
Additional infrastructure includes a second workshop/open-sided shed, water tanks, septic systems and a new bore producing approximately 3L/s. The bore, septic system and associated septic and tank pumps have also been recently replaced, while a six-station irrigation system helps service the tanks and established gardens.
Concrete driveway pads to both residences provide reliable wet-season access, with the acreage having a proven history of remaining non-flooding.
For investors or those looking for flexible living arrangements, the two independent residences are a rare find. The main three-bedroom home is currently leased at $750 per week until March 2027, while the two-bedroom residence is leased at $550 per week, providing a combined rental income of $1,300 per week with established tenants keen to stay on.
The setup also lends itself to extended family living, home-business opportunities or those wanting to live in one residence while generating income from the other.
With two vacant paddocks and approximately five acres of land, there may also be potential to explore future development or subdivision opportunities, subject to planning requirements and relevant approvals (STCA).
Despite its peaceful rural setting, everyday conveniences are only minutes away. Coolalinga Shopping Centre, supermarkets, medical services, cafés, farm and pool supplies, the post office and public transport connections are all within easy reach.

Private, quirky and unmistakably Territory, 20 McIntyre Road is already an incredibly well-established rural property – but perhaps its greatest appeal is how many different directions the next owner could take it.
Whether you're looking for dual income, extended family living, space for a business, room for animals or a property with future possibilities, the hard work and infrastructure are already here.
Move in, invest, create or grow – and dream as big as the five acres allow.
