Districts View
View not ready — official layers are still retrieving for this property. Official planning layers still retrieving. Flood / bushfire / heritage not yet retrieved. No recorded sale price for this property. Districts does not score a property it cannot yet see.
Nothing about this record stands out yet — coverage may still be filling in.
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
WAWA full cadastre is not free for commercial use. Lot optionality cannot be computed from 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 $804/week — not this address. An inferred likely-rent range is not shown until official bond series are loaded for this dwelling type and bedrooms. No recorded off-street parking — often a discount versus the suburb median for the same beds.
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.
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.

Development optionality of this lot
UnknownWA full cadastre is not free for commercial use. Lot optionality cannot be computed from official geometry.
Nearby development pipeline
UnknownNearby development applications are not loaded for this property.
Honest achievable rent
KnownlowThis 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
UnknownSupply pressure needs comparable listings near this lot plus a nearby DA pipeline. Neither is loaded.
Why is this cheap?
UnknownThe constraint stack has not been retrieved for this lot, so Districts cannot explain a discount versus land size.
Lot-level flood
UnknownOfficial flood overlay has not been retrieved (pending). Missing layer is unknown, not “no.”
Catalyst exposure
UnknownFunded catalyst catchments are not loaded. A TOD badge is not this product.
This lot's DA history
UnknownDevelopment applications have not been queried for this parcel.
Statutory land value versus ask
UnknownStatutory land value is not available as free bulk data in this jurisdiction. Do not fake it with a suburb median.
Net yield / holding costs

MAIN ROADS ... advice re future road improvements: .. "our Red Road is 5 properties to the North of #448 (to Lot 106) & we've no immediate plans for your property re road widening yet. Though under "Perth & Peel $3.5M it shows Nicholson will be extended in the future, per Main Roads.
Currently from Lot 106 going South, it becomes a Blue Road under local government, Armadale.
There is a wide Benefit Easement on #448's GREEN TITLE (your best & highest use/ownership of land!) showing 540sqm OUTSIDE of #448's 4.456HA / 11+acres Lot. This easement (Lot 24) is shown as a "right of carriageway' for owners, No probs! This runs along the front section outside our fence line, bordering another narrow Lot 21 belonging to the Water Corp. (in my opinion, all in readiness for the future?!) ..
TENANT ... pays $550pw and is keen to remain after May 2019 if possible. There's no official 'building approval .. for horses'.. "which have occupied this property", per owners "even before us, when the Government owned the land". Tenants have dressage horses in the paddocks plus erected "Sighter wire fencing which has a white plastic coating, making wires more visible to horses. This is around some of the yards/paddocks to protect horses - not all of the 5 paddocks, 5 yards or property is fenced though there is post & rail mesh fencing near the driveway. An Arena exists too.
SHADY TREES run through the middle of the property with open space in the rear wetlands which tends to keep the land reasonably green & vegetated. It is an advantage for you as most of this land is cleared.
Dept of Water confirmed that although this is a Wetland Protection Area this property
is NOT situated within a Public Drinking Water Source" (ie less restrictions!!)
EXCELLENT NEWS for buyers when applying for stocking rates for example.
WATER CORP confirmed:
- The property uses SCHEME WATER (has excellent pressure as taps off the Serpentine mainline) Scheme is another huge advantage for this Land's future! Currently connected to septic tanks. There is no mains gas; the property uses gas bottles for water heating plus you're cooking with gas!
- #448 has a private bore (there's 'no working pump installed though power is at that location'); if it were working (sold as is) one could irrigate up to 2,000sqm for private use ..
NB: Sellers aim to renew their Water License in case you wished to water a larger area for example.
- There is a convenient drain, James Drain, which traverses the property from the rear & along the southern boundary out to the front Lot 61 (Water Corp's adjoining Nicholson Rd), then running through to Forrestdale Lake. Drain is managed by Armadale Shire.
- Water Rates are only $260.65 approx pa.
Originally an 1980's 3x1 home (now 4x2 +office), she now has a SPACIOUS EXTENSION with a large 6x4m approx living room, another room plus master bedroom & wall of mirrored BIR, a/c, balcony & ensuite with separate cupboard upstairs.
- Large air-conditioner works well downstairs in the office, flows through to kitchen & open plan living. Separate WC in laundry; 2nd bathroom & 3 more bedrooms downstairs.
- Remote-controlled front gate with security cameras.
- A communication cabinet is mounted on the wall in the large office, inclusive of a network switch - connecting network and antennae points to bedrooms and both living rooms.
- Owner is an IT consultant & advises:
"Lucky with this LOCATION as there are 2 mobile towers, 2 doors north of us, so you received full signal even when down the back of this property! The telecommunication exchange is approx 1km away so while currently on ADSL 2 (top speed of 24MBS) we were achieving very good speeds (over 20) - fantastic for a Rural property! There's also an ADSL filter installed, to ensure a clean reception.
Network & antennae ports are in every bedroom (except master) & in both living rooms, running to the office communications cupboard. In here is a switch enabling one to plug computers together in a network & the PVR (personal video recorder) for the security cameras. This needs a monitor & buyers could obtain a device that pushes signals into the antennae system, enabling them to tune in the channel for the security cameras on any TV in the house, if required! "
- NBN will be available 'later this year'.
- Large 5.5KW Solar System with converter & trip switch outside.
- 3phase power is available to all 3 sheds (tractor shed connects under ground to stables) Sheds and stables are old & sold as is. A 6' fenced dog or animal run & small shed is on southern border.
- Council Rates are approx $2,701pa
Owners are keen sellers ...
