Districts View
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 $609/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 LJ Hooker Property Partners | Sunnybank HillsSet well back from Balham Rd, screened by established trees, this quaint 3-bed timber lowset is essential viewing for first-home buyers, renovators who spot easy avenues to value-add, and big dreamers looking for sites to build their forever home (STCA). It also offers excellent potential for those considering running a home-based business or even converting to commercial use, subject to council approval.
Highlights:
- Polished hardwood timber floors through the central lounge & 3 bedrooms
- Tiled flooring in the front dining room, the modern kitchen & bathroom + laundry
- Large 615m2 block, fully fenced with driveway past the house to a double garage/shed
- 10-minute walk to dog-friendly Kookaburra Park & bus transport to get about Brissy
- Short drive to Rocklea State School, Yeronga State High, ALDI, Griffith Uni, Brisbane Markets
- Great potential for a home business setup or future commercial conversion (STCA)
There's an easy flow through this home's primary living areas; the tiled front dining room connects through two spacious openings into a large lounge which then extends into a modern kitchen with loads of bench space and storage, tiled splashbacks and a twin sink with backyard outlook.
The flooring gets serious in the lounge first, where the tiles are exchanged for polished hardwood floorboards that continue into the 3 bedrooms, one of these with a whole wall of built-in robes.
The bathroom has also had a makeover at one point and is a light, white and bright space with a space saving shower-over-full-tub and a vanity with integrated basin and storage below.
Front and back, there's an easy win straight up just by laying down some fresh turf - which will create big play-friendly outdoor areas within these fully fenced grounds, perfect if you have kids or pets. For your wheels, there's a concrete driveway running past the house to a double garage.
There's excellent potential here to explore options to further update the existing home with more internal d\u233?cor swaps, consider extending or looking for a home with space to run a small business - there's certainly land available - or even explore the option of starting afresh with a brand-new build (STCA).
Whatever way you go you'll further capitalise on this convenient southside location. Big parks with off-leash dog areas are only a walk away, and you can reach every other amenity in mere minutes by car: Rocklea State School (2), Salisbury train station (5), Brisbane Markets for Saturday stock ups (6) ALDI, QEII Hospital & Griffith Uni (8), Indooroopilly Shopping Centre (15) and 20 to town.
Inspect soon & bring your imaginations along with you. This is a property with potential plus (STCA)!
