ROZH Property Snapshot

Brisbane property records

Know what you're buying
before you bid.

Enter a Brisbane address. We pull the planning overlays from Brisbane City Council open data and translate them into plain English — flood planning areas, bushfire risk, pre-1947 character restrictions, heritage listings, acid sulfate soils, biodiversity, steep land, and more.

Brisbane LGA only. Data sourced live from Brisbane City Council open data. Not a formal Council search. Not legal or building advice. Full terms.

What we check

Zoning

What kind of development is permitted on the site.

Flood

Brisbane River, creek/waterway, and overland flow planning areas.

Character (pre-1947)

The demolition-restriction overlay that catches most inner-city buyers.

Heritage

Local and state heritage listings.

Bushfire

Hazard overlay — dictates BAL assessment and construction standards.

Biodiversity & vegetation

Clearing restrictions, koala habitat proximity.

Waterway corridors

Setbacks and riparian vegetation rules.

Acid sulfate soils

Excavation and pool construction implications.

Steep land

Landslide hazard and geotechnical requirements.

What we don't check (and you should)

  • Contamination (EMR/CLR). Paid search via the QLD Government — essential for any property on or near former industrial, service station, dry-cleaner, or panel-beating sites.
  • Title search. Paid search via QLD Titles Registry — reveals mortgages, caveats, easements and covenants on the title.
  • Urban Utilities sewer / water infrastructure. Build-over-sewer issues can cost tens of thousands.
  • Airport ANEF (aircraft noise). Check separately if near Brisbane Airport flight paths.
  • Physical condition. Engage a licensed building inspector (AS 4349.1) before you sign.
  • Termites and timber pest. Engage a licensed timber pest inspector (AS 4349.3) before you sign.
