Property Analyser · by The Owlery Works
Know what the listing
leaves out.
Any NSW address: school zones, transport, crime, flood and bushfire risk, rents and past sales. Plus a diary for every inspection.
Finishing final touches. Not on the App Store yet — the download link appears here the day it is.
What you get
One address, everything public about it.
-
Schools
The schools the address is zoned for, and every school nearby.
-
Getting around
Stations, buses, shops, parks and GPs close by.
-
Safety and risk
Crime against the NSW average, zoning, and flood and bushfire maps.
-
Sales and rents
Past sale prices, local medians and rents nearby.
-
Scores and priorities
Out of 10 for living and renting there, with what matters to you shown first.
-
Compare and ask
Put three homes side by side, or ask which one is closest to a station.
Inspection diary
Remember every home you walk through.
Notes, voice memos, photos and video for each home you inspect. Voice memos become text on your phone. The diary never reaches us, and iCloud sync can take it to your iPad.
The notes in the picture were typed for it.

Free, and private
Your searches aren’t kept.
Free, with no ads and no account. Lookups use our server, which answers and keeps no record. Your homes and diary never reach us.
