Data Disclaimer

Last updated: 1 January 2025

Important: Suburb reports produced by Compare My Suburb are for general research purposes only. They do not constitute financial advice, property investment advice, or any form of professional advice. Always obtain independent professional advice before making property purchasing decisions.

Data Currency and Accuracy

While we take reasonable care to use accurate and current data, we cannot guarantee that all data is up to date, complete, or free from error. Specifically:

  • ABS Census data is collected every five years. The most recent census was 2021. Demographic conditions may have changed materially since the census date.
  • School data (NAPLAN, locations) is updated annually but may not reflect changes occurring after the most recent data release.
  • Distances to amenities (hospitals, train stations, parks, supermarkets) are calculated using geographic coordinates and may not account for road closures, access restrictions, or service changes.
  • API data from government sources may be subject to outages, delays, or changes to data structure that temporarily affect our ability to provide live data. Where live API data is unavailable, we may fall back to a verified static dataset with the data as-at date noted in the report.

Not Financial or Investment Advice

Suburb ranking scores produced by Compare My Suburb are based on proximity and availability data (distance to schools, transport, hospitals, etc.) weighted according to your criteria selections. They are descriptive data tools, not predictive investment models.

Suburb rankings do not predict future capital growth, rental yields, or property values. Past suburb performance data referenced in our Real Estate News articles is historical only and is not a reliable indicator of future performance.

Before making any property decision, you should consult a qualified:

  • Licensed property buyer's agent
  • Financial adviser (Australian Financial Services licence holder)
  • Conveyancer or property solicitor
  • Property valuer (where applicable)

Our Real Estate News articles contain links to third-party websites including realestate.com.au, domain.com.au, and government portals. We do not control these websites and are not responsible for their content, accuracy, or availability. Links are provided for informational purposes only and do not constitute endorsement.

Limitation of Liability

To the extent permitted by law, SmartNet Digital Pty Ltd shall not be liable for any loss or damage arising from your reliance on suburb data, rankings, or other information provided through Compare My Suburb. This includes but is not limited to financial loss, property purchasing decisions, or investment outcomes.

Nothing in this disclaimer limits your rights under the Australian Consumer Law where those rights cannot be excluded by agreement.
