What we check at the address level

Area averages cannot tell you about one specific property. The full PropertyFlags report checks the address itself against official government layers (flood and bushfire mapping, planning controls, development applications where published, contamination records, aircraft and road noise and more) and turns them into red, yellow and green flags with the questions to ask the real estate agent.
