Free Property Report from BOQ

550

This deal was posted on Ozbargain in the past but the post expired in 2014

There are some alternatives out there like Comm banks property app but I personally like this report as it gives you a PDF copy to retain.

Simply go into the App Store whether you’re on an apple device or if you have got and android phone go into the App Store or the Google Play Store and type “BOQ property” or simply type “BOQ” and then look for the Bank of Queensland Property App.

App Store

Play Store

If you are outside of Australia searching for this app then chances are you’re not going to be able to find it. You do need to be in Australia to get access to this app.

Downloading this property app you can then get a free report sent to you. This is not a complete report like the one you would buy from RP Data, however, the data is provided by RP Data but it has less comparable sales and less figures in there. It however has the majority of the goodness and so if you are still in that early research phase then this is a great way to get access to a free report.

When using the app you simply type in the address, you then need to put in your name, email address, phone number and then they will email the report to you.
You are going to get a follow-up from the Bank of Queensland. By offering this they’re hoping to get people’s details and therefore convert you into a Bank of Queensland member or get a mortgage through them or something like that.
You are going to get contacted by them if you take this route, however, you can just say to them “look I just wanted the free report, I’m not actually looking to change banks at the moment” or alternatively enter some "dummy details"

      I am referring to the deal on ozbargain having expired not the service

      • Fair enough!

  • Could you provide the Google Android app link.
    Can probably easiest download it with https://apps.evozi.com/apk-downloader/, or other similar services.

  • Thank you op

      Same for my addresses. And they want all your info to get a report. Uninstalled

        still better than nothing i guess. very useful for initial detail on property & suburb market price. and why are you thinking of using your real info (ie. email, phone number etc.)? use bogus one instead, it works..

        • Google seems better choice, save memory for your phone. Uninstalled

        • @castaway: off course everyone is googling, it's a no brainer, this app (and many others) are just free complement, whether want to use or not is everyone choice :)

  • "When using the app you simply type in the address, you then need to put in your name, email address, phone number and then they will email the report to you."

    Not to judge, but somehow this rings an alarm bell that they'd probably pressure-call you instead of email….

    • Thanks but this has been covered off in the post

      "You are going to get contacted by them if you take this route, however, you can just say to them “look I just wanted the free report, I’m not actually looking to change banks at the moment” or alternatively enter some "dummy details"

      I have been using the service for nearly 2 years and always just enter dummy details in apart from genuine email address and have never gotten any thing from them that i hadn't requested.

      • agree, been using since launched and very useful, name: Batman, Phone Number: 0400000000 and throw-away email address also works :)

  • My experience has been you can call your bank and ask them to give you one for free. I'm an ANZ Breakfree customer and on more than one occasion when looking to purchase a second house they gave me a full report for free.

      Or you can pm your ozbargain member who is a broker and ask for one.

      • Wink wink(noted)

  • It takes a little while to update once a property is sold but it is a great way of identifying how an area is doing in regards to sales price and how long it was on the market etc. Good for figuring out a neighbourhood that you want to buy in or if you have lived in a place for a while and not paid attention to the market. I've used it at least a hundred times and no call from the bank. As others have said above use fake details.

    • Agree - use fake details and they don't contact.
      9 of 10 houses will have current info

  • Anyone got the android .APK file. I can't get it.
    Email it to [email protected] if you can.
    I'll update here when I have it.

    • Edit: Nevermind, they don't have the apk
