Settlement Risk Report
The Settlement Risk Report provides insights into a property's potential settlement risk. Unit development application data analysed alongside other market factors showcases suburb-level future unit supply and residential property market risk and opportunity.
Identify settlement risk
Settlement risk is the risk that the market value of a property purchased off-the-plan will deteriorate between the contract date and settlement date (after construction is completed). It is categorised into three forms.
- Inherent: Risk in off-the-plan purchases made in recent years that are expected to settle in the near term.
- Oversupply: A medium to longer term risk resulting from high levels of new unit supply arriving in a short time frame, unable to be absorbed by the local market.
- Uneven distribution: When new unit supply isn’t spread evenly and not all suburbs have the same market dynamics to absorb it.
