Districts View
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.

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.
Stamp duty and transfer fees: Western Australia schedules from 2026-07-01. Ongoing council rates and land tax are not included.
Pre-filled with Maylands's advertised median rent — not a rent for this listing.
Gross yield is weekly rent × 52 ÷ price. Net yield subtracts operating expenses. Cashflow then subtracts interest-only interest on price × LVR. Tax, vacancies, and principal repayments are not included.
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 58 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 $595/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.
Gross yield if leased at the suburb aggregate is 6.3%. 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
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.

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?

Lot-level flood
UnknownOfficial flood overlay has not been retrieved (pending). Missing layer is unknown, not “no.”

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

Listing material
Listed by Century 21 Team BrockhurstNot every property asks you to admire what's already been done. Some invite you to imagine what comes next. This 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom ground floor unit is one of them. Mostly original, currently leased until September 2027 at $530 per week and tucked into one of Maylands' most connected pockets, it's an opportunity that's becoming very popular.
Inside, the layout is simple and practical. The open-plan lounge and dining sit at the front of the home, with timber-look flooring underfoot and a split system air conditioner keeping things comfortable through Perth's long summers. The kitchen is unmistakably from another era, still perfectly usable, but ready for someone with fresh ideas when the time feels right.
The main bedroom is a comfortable size, complete with a large built-in robe (sold as is) and ceiling fan. The second bedroom works equally well as a guest room or home office. The bathroom carries its original charm too, with a shower over the bath and a separate toilet tucked behind its own partition. The laundry shares the same space, practical, uncomplicated and one less room to clean.
FEATURES:
* Built in 1972 with loads of potential
* Mostly original throughout
* Leased until September 2027
* Currently returning $530 per week
* Timber-look floors through living areas
* Open-plan lounge and dining
* Split system air conditioning
* Original kitchen with scope to update
* Large master with built-in robe (as is) and ceiling fan
* Flexible second bedroom
* Original bathroom full of character, shower over bath
* Combined bathroom and laundry
Outside, the real draw is what surrounds you. Mornings can begin with a walk beside the Swan River. Coffee is only ever a short wander away along Whatley Crescent or Guildford Road, where cafés, bakeries, small bars and independent shops have quietly become part of the neighbourhood's rhythm. The train into the city is an easy walk, and Perth's CBD sits less than five kilometres away. St John of God Mount Lawley Hospital is close by, making everyday convenience part of the package.
This isn't a home pretending to be something it's not. It's honest. It's original. And for the right buyer, it's full of possibilities. Whether you're planning your next renovation, looking for a solid investment or simply chasing a foothold in one of Perth's most character-filled suburbs, this one is well worth a closer look.
