How it works

Three steps. No council-PDF pile.

  1. We scour & filter overnight

    Listings, council and DA sources, town planning / zoning, flood and risk overlays. Only lots that stack up survive.

  2. Your brief lands each morning

    A focused shortlist in your dashboard — and email when it’s ready. Not hundreds of raw listings.

  3. Open, save, act

    Full plain-English check packs with PDF export. Pin lots for later, or wait for tomorrow’s drop.

  1. Scour the sources

    Listings, council noticeboards, DA registers and the other places you’d hunt yourself — across Queensland.

  2. Analyse each candidate

    Town planning / zoning, overlays and constraints, written up in plain English.

  3. Check flood maps & risk overlays

    The risk layers worth knowing before you chase a lot.

  4. Filter hard

    Only lots that stack up make the daily brief — not every parcel in the state.

  5. Deliver the shortlist

    Plain-English check packs each morning. You get the shortlist, not the grind.

FAQ

Common questions

Is this planning advice?

No. Research and shortlists only. Engage your own planner for lodgement and advice.

How many sites per day?

Enough to act on — typically a focused shortlist, not hundreds of raw listings. Volume varies with what councils publish.

Are the stamp duty figures exact?

No. Stamp duty is shown as an estimate until the duty tables are verified. Always confirm with the state revenue office or your solicitor.

Can I start with one state and upgrade later?

Yes. Start with one state (A$247/mo), then upgrade to two states (A$370.50/mo) or Australia-wide (A$745.50/mo) from your account.

Do you cover every DA in Queensland?

We filter for signal: approvals and sites that meet our developable / interesting criteria. You are not paying for an unfiltered dump.

Research support — not advice

Dev Brief is information and research support. It is not town planning advice, legal advice, or a substitute for a planner, surveyor, or solicitor. Always verify against council and title before you buy or lodge.

Your shortlists stay yours

We collect account email, billing via Stripe, and product usage to run the service. We do not sell your shortlists.
