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

Why this ask?

  • FactListed for sale, asking $950,000(Listing record · 6 July 2026)
  • FactLand 218 m²; no building size recorded.(Property record)
  • CalculationAsk is 39% below the Scarborough median recorded sale ($1,545,000, n=18, last 12 months).(Districts calculation from recorded sales)
  • CalculationIf it leased at Scarborough's advertised median rent ($735/wk), implied gross yield would be 4.02% — 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.

Stamp duty and transfer fees: Western Australia schedules from 2026-07-01. Ongoing council rates and land tax are not included.

Events are recorded observations from public listings, kept with their source and date. Missing values are shown as unknown, never estimated.

Capital growth

WA

Why this lot, not just this suburb

Why could this property outperform?

WA full cadastre is not free for commercial use. Lot optionality cannot be computed from official geometry. Listed land size is 218 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.

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 for this property.

Rental

Income, competition, and yield

What will it realistically rent for?

Confidence: low

No advertised rent is recorded. Suburb median rent $735/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 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.

What does the yield actually look like?

Confidence: low

Gross yield if leased at the suburb aggregate is 4.0%. 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

    WA full cadastre is not free for commercial use. Lot optionality cannot be computed from official geometry. Listed land size is 218 m² — that is not official geometry.

  • Nearby development pipeline

    Unknown

    Nearby development applications are not loaded for this property.

  • 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

North Facing — Superb Location

Imagine waking up every morning to this home's elevated position, with light flooding through from the north and ocean glimpses greeting you from the bedroom window. Take the dog for a walk around Butlers Reserve, then spend the afternoon in the back yard with friends, barbeque going, sun still streaming in well into the evening. Or head out for pizzas at General Public, or pasta and a red wine at the Secret Italian. This is a home built around those everyday moments.

The standout is the north-facing rear yard, running the full length of the home and filling it with natural light all year round. Combine that with the elevated position, and you've got a property that just feels good to be in.

Solid, well-built and full of the kind of storage you just don't find anymore, this is a home with great bones and room to move.

Read the full description

The lower level, the kitchen includes stone benchtops, hotplates, a dishwasher and a walk-in pantry, all wrapped in light, bright, neutral tones and flowing through the living outdoors — the kind of space that makes hosting effortless. A generous storage room off the back patio adds to the practicality, along with under-stair storage and a separate toilet in the renovated laundry. Parking is easy too, with space for two cars plus guest parking.

Upstairs you'll find all three bedrooms, each a great size. The master is generous with built-in robes and plenty of room for a king bed. bedroom two looks straight to the ocean and bedroom three includes a walk-in robe.

The bathroom has been fully renovated with a separate bath, shower and tasteful tiles, complemented by a separate toilet and a linen cupboard for extra storage.

Location is a genuine drawcard, with easy access to the beach and effortless coastal drives to Hillary's or Cottesloe. It's an easy walk to WDSC, the International School of WA, Hale School and Wembley Downs Primary School, and close to Calais Road shops, plus Butlers Reserve just around the corner. The freeway is a short drive away and public transport is close by, making the daily commute a breeze.

A well-built home with excellent proportions, natural light and storage to match — properties like this don't come along often.
