Before you buy

A FloodWise Property Report shows the risk and type of flooding at one property, with historic flood levels, and covers river, creek, overland flow and storm tide flooding. The council's archive holds photographs of Fig Tree Pocket streets under floodwater in January 2011. Get the report for the address before you make an offer.
