Given the $430,000 ask, is this worth your time?

Why this ask?

  • FactListed for sale, asking $430,000(Listing record · 28 Aug 2026)

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: New South Wales schedules from 2026-07-01. Ongoing council rates and land tax are not included.

Rental yield

No rent is recorded for this listing. Enter a weekly rent to model yield.

Enter a purchase price and weekly rent to calculate yield.

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.

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.

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

Capital growth

NSW

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.” NSW has a statewide DA API. Nearby (100–800 m) applications are not loaded for this property yet.

Rental

Income, competition, and yield

What will it realistically rent for?

No advertised rent and no suburb rent aggregate are loaded. Official bond files are not loaded. Listing rent and suburb aggregates are evidence, not this address’s rent.

What competition will it face?

Current comparable rental listings within 400 m of this lot are not loaded. NSW has a statewide DA API. Nearby (100–800 m) applications are not loaded for this property yet. 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

Yield cannot be shown without both a price and a rent figure. Net yield is not estimated from gross advertising copy. NSW net yield needs land tax and VG inputs that are not loaded. Gross yield from listings is not net yield.

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.

Listed by Nimbin Hills Real Estate

A Rare Off-Grid Bush Retreat Privacy, Nature & Community

A truly unique opportunity to embrace private, self-sufficient living in the Australian bush.

This much-loved, north-facing home forms part of the established Mackellar Range Trust, a 50-year-old Multiple Occupancy and Rural Land Sharing community of just 17 shareholders and families. The purchase includes a 1/17th share and beneficial interest in approximately 221 hectares of native forest, with waterfalls, creeks, swimming areas and abundant wildlife.

Access is via a 6km single-lane 4WD road, ensuring exceptional peace and seclusion. The property is surrounded by spectacular natural bushland, including magnificent Xanthorrhoea, and is home to echidnas, bandicoots, wallabies, goannas, koalas, possums, microbats and abundant birdlife — with the occasional dingo adding to the wild character.

Read the full description

The charming off-grid home offers one loft bedroom, office, galley kitchen and bathroom, with a Nectre wood stove and wetback. Solar power is supplied by a 24-volt, 900-amp lead-acid battery system installed by Rainbow Power, while water is supplied by more than 70,000 litres of storage and gravity-fed to the house. Solar hot water is supplemented by the wood heater's wetback.

Outdoor living is beautifully integrated into the property, with an undercover kitchen, gas stove, cob pizza oven and grape arbour. A productive food-tunnel garden provides easy access to fresh herbs and salad, while established terraced rock gardens and a mature orchard feature avocado, citrus, mango, macadamia, lychee, peach, feijoa, Davidson plum, dragon fruit and other unusual fruiting plants.

Additional improvements include a separate composting toilet, laundry, studio/workshop, two-bay carport, undercover caravan for guest accommodation, stone tool shed, chook house and guinea pig house.

Community is an important part of the lifestyle. Mackellar Range Trust is managed by its volunteer beneficiaries and relies on member participation, regular meetings and working bees. A three-month trial period applies to prospective purchasers. A $1,000 joining fee also applies.

Whether you're seeking a private bush retreat, artist's haven, self-sufficient lifestyle or a place to reconnect with nature, this is an extraordinary opportunity to renovate or recreate and make this special property your own.
