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.

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 $636/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.
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
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 Gardian Real EstateWould you love high ceilings, large bedrooms and living areas and classic features such as tongue and groove walls and beautiful polished floorboards?
Want all that with a terrific modern pool and a big block in a superb West Mackay location?
Well, you are in luck.
And if you were hoping to buy something like that cheaper than a fully renovated, freshly painted and polished property then you should definitely read on.
This property represents an enormous opportunity to get something with "great bones" and "potential" and turn it into something very special without having to make dramatic changes or do extensive renovations.
Yes, it needs a coat of paint inside and out, yes the huge deck needs to be oiled and the floorboards need to be polished, and you could look at putting in built-in wardrobes and update one of the bathrooms ... but the seller is aware of that and expects buyers to factor that into the price.
But apart from those updates what we have here is a fantastic three bedroom, two bathroom property with a good roof and stumps and a renovated kitchen on an 862sq m block.
But there's much more than that!
There are superb living and dining areas that flow out to a massive deck that has an abundance of space for outdoor dining and entertaining.
The deck overlooks the very modern and stylish in-ground pool so what you will be creating is a fantastic indoor-outdoor lifestyle.
The kitchen has been renovated and has a six-burner gas stove, cupboards up to the ceiling and a terrific servery with stacker doors that opens out to the deck.
Some of the other features of the fully fenced property include:
- Three large bedrooms ... and we mean large!
- Two bathrooms, one with a shower and separate spa-style bath and separate toilet. The second bathroom is older and has a shower, toilet and handbasin
- Sunroom at the front of the house that flows through to the loungeroom. There is another room, a sleepout, that is near two of the bedrooms that would be a great place for kids to hang out or for a study
- The loungeroom flows beautifully into the dining area, which in turn flows out through stacker doors to the deck
- The stacker doors create an incredible open flow through living areas to the deck and help generate an enviable indoor-outdoor lifestyle
- The deck overlooks the pool, which is modern and top-class and will be a big part of that outdoor lifestyle you will enjoy through most of the year when you make this your home
- There is an old shed, which can accommodate a car as well as providing addition storage and work space
- The property has very good side access and, if you decide to remove the old shed, you will have plenty of room for a new wider one than the current single bay
Set in a fantastic and super-popular part of West Mackay, the property is near the Mackay Base Hospital, excellent private and public schools including the new Catholic high school that will open in West Mackay next year, the Botanic Gardens, supermarkets and other retail outlets and has easy access to Paget and the CBD.
This is an outstanding opportunity for someone who understands the long-term value of West Mackay properties and can see the potential in this beauty. Give David Fisher a call to arrange an inspection.
