In Brisbane, two houses in the same street can sit on either side of a past flood line, a busy road or a noise corridor. PropertyCheck reads Brisbane City Council and Queensland Government data for one address and puts it on one page, with the source of each answer.

Past floods: 1974, 2011 and 2022

Brisbane flooded in January 1974, January 2011 and February 2022. The free preview says whether the address is inside the mapped extent of each of those floods, and what Brisbane City Council's flood mapping says about it today.

In the full report: the Council's Flood Awareness Map for the address with the 2022 and 2011 flood extents drawn over the aerial photo, and how floodwater reaches the property.

Flood: Brisbane City Council flood data and Flood Awareness Map (non-statutory). A past flood extent shows where water reached, not a forecast. PropertyCheck is not a flood certificate; for a property search or insurance, use the Council's official flood information.
