Thomas Popple · last observed 16 Oct 2026How much price evidence fits
The wider pool is not a set of identical homes. Bedroom count, condition and location within the suburb affect comparability.
Published auction evidence · model trained through 2026-09-15The strata scheme
Scheme size provides context. It does not tell us the current levies, finances or condition of the building.
NSW strata register · registered 1966These are recorded events, not evidence of the seller's motivation.
Use these with the agent and your independent advisers. An answer is something to verify, not a fact we have recorded.
The estimate is a model output. The records are evidence. Your inspection and document checks fill the gaps.
This is a comparison with the evidence we hold, not a valuation or a recommended offer.

These are due-diligence prompts, not a verdict on this property.
9 days since our daily sweep first saw this listing.
The portal's own campaign may have started slightly earlier than our first sighting. Longer campaigns tend to mean more negotiating room — the board's "Longest listed" sort exists for exactly that reason.
$925–$1250/wk is what 2-bed units in 2028 actually transact for (middle half of 53 bonds lodged, Q2 2026 · median $1075/wk — NSW Fair Trading, CC BY).
2019Q1 → 2026Q2: $750 → $1050/wk · +6% over the last 12 months (latest four quarters averaged against the previous four) — quarterly new-tenancy medians for units in 2028, all bedroom counts pooled.
Asking rents are what agents hope for; bond figures are what tenants actually signed at (NSW Fair Trading bond lodgements, CC BY). No yield % is derived here: each rent above is a different grain from this home's price, and a ratio of two grains reads as precision it doesn't have. New-tenancy rents run hotter than sitting rents. Not financial advice.
Too few same-bed sales for a measured growth rate yet. Recent quarterly sold medians (all unit sizes — thin samples move these):
2023Q3 $1285k (6) · 2024Q3 $1648k (4) · 2024Q4 $1525k (7) · 2025Q2 $1988k (4)
Suburb-level, from published auction results. No single building has enough sales for a block-level series, so this is the honest grain; sales-mix shifts move raw medians, and the measured rate (when shown) controls for bed count.

Building Commission NSW / Strata Community Association 2023 Strata Defects Survey: 53% of newly registered strata buildings reported at least one serious defect in common property (39% in the 2021 survey). Defects are common, not exceptional — and new does not mean safe (Opal Tower was under a year old).
Get an independent structural and strata inspection before you commit — the defect base rate makes it the single highest-value dollar in the purchase.
We cannot see inside a building — no one can from public records. This section states base rates and observable adjacency only, and will never call a building safe.
Strata plan SP2284 registered 1966 — the building is at least 60 years old · 26 lots in the scheme.
Registration is an age floor, not a build date — a converted building is older than its strata plan. Scheme records from the NSW Strata Hub. © State of New South Wales (Spatial Services, a business unit of the Department of Customer Service NSW). For current information go to spatial.nsw.gov.au.
