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. Listed land size is 802 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.
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 $542/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 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.

Listing material
Listed by The Agency PerthThis cute and charming cottage has so much character and a load of potential. It's the perfect home to get started in either as a home buyer or investor, on a lovely large block surrounded by beautiful trees in an area that was developed in the 1950's. All the streets are filled with these character homes, the street trees are impressive and there are established tracts of natural reserves and attractive parks around every corner.
49 Cowcher Way East welcomes you with its vibrant exterior, nestled back on the block and framed in greenery. As with many homes in the area, you walk straight into a large living room with original pine timber floors and high ceilings. A large sliding door has been added to the northern wall, overlooking the greenery and flooding the room with natural light.
You access the generous bedrooms from a corridor to the right, one at the front and one at the rear with a bathroom between. The front bed is the primary with the second bed at the rear, both are lovely, light rooms with a cosy vibe. The bathroom includes a bath and separate shower.
Behind the living room is the kitchen and this may be original as well, lining two walls of the room. This is a functioning kitchen with good space, plenty of storage and a great opportunity for a buyer to make it their own. The large window looks out over the spacious yard. Adjacent to this is the quirky laundry and then out to the back garden.
There is so much potential right here. There's room to add to the existing home, create an outdoor entertaining area of your dreams, add a fancy workshop, and plant a fabulous kitchen garden! There are several large trees that add to the sense of privacy and wilderness, so you'll enjoy a quiet seat under the patio with a morning coffee from the day you move in.
This block has a lot of great space. You could add a pool, a granny flat*, park boats, bikes, and multiple cars. There's tons of easily accessible space under the house to utilise as storage as well. And it's a great location. On a quiet little street, close to the shops, childcare centres and Medina Primary. You could walk to the shops and the bus stop on Medina Avenue. At the end of a street is a BMX track, just for fun, and it's an easy drive to get in and out of the suburb. The entry to the suburb is one of the best in Perth, with a wide avenue lined by massive Morton Bay Figs.
Medina offers a blend of heritage charm and modern convenience. Here you're a ten-minute drive to the Rockingham foreshore, 15 mins to Point Peron, 25 mins to Fremantle and only 30 mins to Perth via the Freeway if you drive or take 10 minutes longer catching a bus to Rockingham Station and go by train. If you work in Kwinana you're only 5 minutes away!
This very accessible suburb, close to the coast, is a very affordable option for those wanting a decent block of land with a quirky character home, the charm of an established, green suburb already complete with amenities, rather than a small block on the outskirts of Perth and not a tree in sight. If this sounds like a great option for you, then come and see this cutie before it is snapped up by another!
