Given the $950,000 ask, is this worth your time?

Why this ask?

  • FactListed for sale, asking $950,000(Listing record · 11 Aug 2026)
  • FactLand 760 m²; no building size recorded.(Property record)
  • CalculationAsk is 2% above the Hillcrest median recorded sale ($929,000, n=38, last 12 months).(Districts calculation from recorded sales)
  • CalculationIf it leased at Hillcrest's advertised median rent ($614/wk), implied gross yield would be 3.36% — 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.

Verify with your conveyancer.

Capital growth

QLD

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 $614/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 3.4%. 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.

Quiet Location, Beautiful Presentation & Room to Grow

Set on the high side of the road in a genuinely quiet pocket of Hillcrest, this beautifully presented home offers something increasingly hard to find, real privacy, real space, and real potential, all in one package.

Your first impression sets the tone. You enter through a private front courtyard, a lovely transitional space that immediately feels like your own, the perfect spot for a morning coffee or simply enjoying a moment of peace before the day begins.

Step inside and the lounge room delivers wow factor, with raked timber ceilings adding a warmth and character you simply don't find in newer builds. It's a space that feels both grand and genuinely liveable.

Read the full description

The kitchen is thoughtfully tucked away from the main living space, with a servery flowing straight through to the dining zone, so you can prep, plate up, and still be part of the conversation. It's the kind of layout that makes hosting feel effortless: the mess stays out of sight, but you never miss a moment with family and friends.

A separate hallway wing, accesses 2 of the 3 bedrooms and the main bathroom, a smart layout that offers a genuine sense of separation and privacy, so everyone gets a bit of breathing room. And that bathroom! It's a proper size, with a deep bath made for long soaks after a big day."

The 3rd bedroom sits on the opposite side of the home, offering flexibility that's genuinely valuable - whether that's a private retreat for a teenager, a dedicated guest room, or a work-from-home space that's away from the everyday hustle of the main living areas.

The laundry, positioned just off the kitchen, is spacious, filled with natural light thanks to plenty of windows, and offering direct access straight out to the rear yard, making everyday chores that much easier.

And then there's the outdoor space, which is where this property truly sets itself apart. A full-length pergola stretching along the rear of the home, creating a fantastic all-weather entertaining zone. There's a tandem carport on one side for parking, while the other side offers something rare - colorbond return fencing paired with a large existing concrete slab, opening up genuine side access potential for a caravan, boat, trailer, or extra vehicle storage. For anyone who's ever struggled to find a home with room for their toys, this is a genuine drawcard.

Two garden sheds add further practicality - one with power connected, ideal for a workshop or hobby space, and the other a generous double size for all your extra storage needs. The gardens themselves are beautifully maintained, giving the whole backyard a real sense of care and pride of ownership.

And here's the exciting part for buyers thinking about the bigger picture: while this home offers 3 well-proportioned bedrooms and genuinely good living space as it stands, the detached double brick garage presents real scope to explore further options down the track - including the potential to convert it into a granny flat (STCA). Whether that means extended family living, a future income stream, or simply added value, it's an opportunity that's genuinely hard to come by.

This is a home that's been loved, that's been looked after, and that's ready to offer its next owners the same quiet, private lifestyle its current owners have clearly enjoyed.
