YOUR OWN RESEARCH FILE
Address research worksheet.
Gather the checks that matter to you before renting or buying. Your notes stay in this browser. Use Print to make a copy.
Use a consistent dwelling type and reporting period; compare the specific property independently.
Search the exact address. A suburb-wide generalisation is insufficient.
Check overlays and development applications. Ask Council about an official property search.
Confirm eligibility and enrolment directly with the school or department.
Choose offence type and time period; do not treat an area count as an address-level risk score.
Include insurance quotes, rates, maintenance, utility availability and travel costs.
Arrange suitable professional inspections and record issues that need follow-up.
Keep the source and date with every conclusion. This worksheet is a personal research aid. It does not replace Council searches, legal advice or professional inspections.
