Tools that turn data into decisions

A few things we lean on constantly: simple maths to show why buying at cost beats buying at retail, market research to decide where to buy, and a way to find the development sites in the first place. They're all here.

Market-research signals that flag a growth suburb: supply, demand, vacancy and days on market
The calculator

Retail vs developer cost price

A retail buyer pays the developer's margin. Acquire at cost and that margin becomes your equity, on the same rent. Plug in your own numbers to see the difference.

Interactive tool

The Manufactured Equity Calculator

Pick a retail price, discount and interest rate, and instantly see the equity, yield and cash-flow difference between buying at developer cost price and buying at retail. Includes two worked examples from the Sapphire Place, Palm Beach deal, shareable links and a printable summary.

Market research

Boomscore: where the fundamentals are quietly strengthening

Boomscore rolls the indicators that tend to precede growth, vacancy, days on market, supply pipeline and demand pressure, into a single comparable score for suburbs and regions across Australia. It is the fastest way to turn 15,000 suburbs into a short list.

We treat it as one input among several, weighed alongside our own supply-and-demand modelling. No score is a crystal ball, but a good score built from sound indicators beats a hunch every time. If you want to explore the data yourself, it is well worth a look.

What a score helps you answer

  • Which suburbs have demand outrunning supply right now
  • Where the pipeline of new stock is thin, not flooding
  • How markets compare on a like-for-like basis
  • Where to point deeper, street-level research next

Stash Property: find developable sites, not just listings

Boomscore tells you which suburbs are worth a look. Stash Property helps you find the actual blocks. It turns 13 million titles and 15,000 suburbs into a shortlist of sites you could develop, with the zoning, overlays and feasibility checks in one place.

It is where a lot of our early site filtering happens, so a vague hunch about an area becomes a concrete list we can take into feasibility.

What it helps you answer

  • Which blocks the planning scheme will actually let you develop
  • What overlays or easements sit over a site before you commit
  • Whether the feasibility and end demand stack up
  • Where the off-market opportunities are, early
