What should you know about this lot before spending serious money?

Why this property?

  • FactLast recorded sale $700,000 (9 Sept 2021).(Recorded sale)
  • FactLand 1,012 m²; no building size recorded.(Property record)
  • CalculationRecorded House sales in Albany (last 5 years) with land size: median $1,210/m² of land (n=57). Districts calculation from recorded sales — not a valuation.(Districts recorded sales)

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.

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 1,012 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 $575/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

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.

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 1,012 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.

CITY COTTAGE WITH DRESS-CIRCLE VIEWS

From its perch on the side of Mt Clarence a short walk from the CBD, this highly appealing character home enjoys spectacular panoramic views over Princess Royal Harbour and out to Torndirrup National Park.

It overlooks the marina, jetty, Anzac Park, the entertainment centre and adjacent tourist hub, and promises a dress circle view of the New Year's Eve fireworks.

The beautifully preserved 1950s home displays polished jarrah floors, decorative ceilings and art deco-inspired pelmets, and has been tastefully modernised for practicality and comfort.

Read the full description

Complementing the generous, air-conditioned lounge at the front of the house is a fabulous sunroom at the rear. Here, a wall of glazing maximises the outlook and a door leads to a big, elevated deck for summer relaxation and entertaining.

The third bedroom also enjoys the amazing outlook. A good-sized single with a built-in robe, this would lend itself to use as an office – with one of the best views of any office in town!

The kitchen is a big room with space for a meals table and an abundance of smart ivory cabinetry, a gas cook-top and a wall oven.

Both of the other two bedrooms have built-in robes. The master at the front is a queen size and the third is a double, and all share the centrally sited bathroom, with a bath, walk-in shower, vanity and toilet.

Under the house is the well-appointed laundry with modern built-in cabinetry, and a lockable storage room.

The sloping block of 1012sqm is terraced with flat areas for lawn, garden beds, a gazebo, a veggie patch, rainwater tank and garden shed, and has water-wise native plantings for low maintenance.

There's a single garage at the side plus off-road parking for another vehicle, and the back yard is gated to contain children and dogs.

The location is another major drawcard. This property is only about 500 metres from the CBD and the eateries, shops, entertainment and amenities. It's also within easy reach of schools and fishing spots.

This is an opportunity to own property in a sought-after part of old Albany, with spades of character, modern amenities for practicality and remarkable views.
