Given the $81,200 ask, is this worth your time?

Why this ask?

  • FactListed for sale, asking $81,200(Listing record · 18 Aug 2026)
  • CalculationRecorded House sales in Rostrevor (last 5 years) with land size: median $2,148/m² of land (n=106). Districts calculation from recorded sales — not a valuation.(Districts recorded sales)
  • CalculationAsk is 93% below the Rostrevor median recorded sale ($1,222,500, n=50, last 12 months).(Districts calculation from recorded sales)
  • CalculationIf it leased at Rostrevor's advertised median rent ($643/wk), implied gross yield would be 41.18% — this is not a rent for this listing.(Districts scenario calculation)

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.

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.

Why this lot, not just this suburb

Why could this property outperform?

Planning 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.

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. This lot’s own applications are a separate question.

Rental

Income, competition, and yield

What will it realistically rent for?

Confidence: low

No advertised rent is recorded. Suburb median rent $643/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. 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.

What does the yield actually look like?

Confidence: low

Gross yield if leased at the suburb aggregate is 41.2%. 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

    Planning layers have not been retrieved for this property yet.

  • Nearby development pipeline

    Unknown

    Nearby development applications are not loaded. This lot’s own applications are a separate question.

  • 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.

Listing material

Listed by Ray White Norwood

Leafy Rostrevor Living with Space, Soul and Scope.

Tucked beneath the scenic foothills of Morialta and wrapped in Rostrevor's leafy calm, this much-loved 1970s residence brings size, warmth and personality to a generous 640sqm (approx.) parcel. Glossy timber floors, arched transitions and rich timber detailing carry the home's character throughout, while the formal lounge flows into dedicated dining before opening directly outdoors. Impeccably maintained and comfortably liveable from day one, it's a classic family footprint with plenty of scope to make its next chapter your own.

Further in, casual meals sit beside the timber-clad kitchen, where sweeping bench space, modern appliances, a skylight and backyard outlook keep cooking connected to everyday life. Three bright bedrooms provide welcome separation, with the master enjoying a walk-in robe and private ensuite, while the remaining pair sit close to the crisp main bathroom. A generous laundry, ducted evaporative air-conditioning and solar power round out the practical comforts.

Outside, an expansive covered entertaining area looks across lush lawns and established greenery, creating a private setting for long lunches and easy weekends. The cubby house invites imagination, while separate storage, workshop space and additional shedding add valuable utility beyond the secure roller-door carport. With an enticing parcel at your disposal, the equation is compelling: enjoy the home as it stands, refurb to suit your style or explore future possibilities when the time is right (STCC).
