The overlay that changes the strategy
How One Overlay Changed
the Entire Strategy
Two lots.Same street.Same zoning.Different story.
One overlay is all it takes. Drag the slider to watch the acid sulfate soils layer rewrite what each site can actually become.
Two lots. Two outcomes.
Blocked
74 Marsden Rd
The overlay locks out dual occupancies, dwelling houses and a long list of other uses the zoning would normally approve. Every consent now triggers an Acid Sulfate Soils Management Plan.
Eligible
75 Marsden Rd
Green-lit for 10+ permissible uses: apartments, townhouses, dual occupancies, dwelling houses, secondary dwellings, boarding houses, and more. The zoning's full upside is on the table: a 35-apartment building with basement parking, straight through DA.
Same street. Different story.
An overlay you can't see from the kerb can flip a site from eligible to blocked, and quietly take…
$250k+off what this site could have delivered.
Who is this for
Anyone making a property decision.
Buying
Know what you're walking into before you sign. Flood zones, bushfire risk, easements, height limits: the things that don't show up at an open home.
First-home buyersInvestorsBuyers agentsUpgraders
Selling
Know what a buyer will find out about your property. Get ahead of objections and price with confidence.

Building
Check site constraints before you design. Setbacks, overlays, sewer easements, slope: the things that kill a DA.

Questions
Things you might be wondering.
Is this actually free?
Yes. The SafeBuy report is free to generate and free to export as PDF. No login required. We believe due diligence data should be accessible, not locked behind $300+ paywalls.
Where does the data come from?
Every layer is queried live from authoritative sources: Queensland Government spatial services, council ArcGIS REST endpoints, Mapbox geocoding, and Overture Maps. Nothing is estimated or cached stale.
How accurate is this compared to a paid report?
We query the same underlying council spatial data that paid services use. The difference is presentation and interpretation. We give you the raw spatial intelligence with interactive maps. For legal decisions, always consult a qualified town planner.
Which councils are supported?
Brisbane, Gold Coast, Logan, Moreton Bay, Ipswich, Redland, Sunshine Coast, Scenic Rim, Lockyer Valley and Toowoomba across South East Queensland, plus Bundaberg, Gladstone, Mackay, Central Highlands, Woorabinda, Maranoa and Western Downs across central and western Queensland. More councils are being added. Each council has between 8-16 sections depending on available spatial data.
Can I use this for a development application?
The report is a screening tool. It tells you what overlays apply to a site and what questions to ask. It is not a substitute for a formal town planning assessment, but it gives you a significant head start.
How long does it take to generate?
Under 60 seconds for most properties. Each of the 19 sections queries spatial data in parallel. Complex lots with many overlays may take slightly longer.
What does "Sign in with Google" access?
Only the standard openid, email and profile scopes — your Google account email, name and avatar. SafeBuy uses these to create your account, save your generated reports against it, and email you when a report is ready. SafeBuy never requests access to Gmail, Drive, Calendar, Contacts, Photos, YouTube or any other Google service. You can sign in with email + password instead, and you can delete your account and all associated data from your /account page at any time.
