What industry leaders say about Microburbs
Buyer's agents and investors who use Microburbs every week say so on the record, and Australia's most-watched property podcasts say the same on their own shows. Watch what they have said, in their own words.
These are selected quotes, chosen because they are positive. Each one says where it came from: a public review, a published article, a podcast episode you can open at the exact moment, or a recorded call where the person agreed to be quoted. We have not published anything from a private email or call that we did not ask about.

Buyer's agents who put it in front of clients every week
People whose fee depends on getting the recommendation right.
Love it for the reporting. It impresses the clients and brokers to no end. Your reports probably sell 90% of my services.
I love this. This is the number one metric that I have right now for risk analysis.
It has become my core tool because I used three or four tools before Microburbs.
The detail of data which is there in Microburbs is insane. At street level, the information which you actually want to see when you are reviewing a suburb to identify a property, this works pretty well.
It's so comprehensive. Your stuff's just next level. I love the way you keep improving and finessing your data.
It's very intuitive, I have to say. So I love the platform. I've been dying to get it for a few months now.
This is what I was trying to do, is to get to a point where we were utilising one tool rather than four. And that's great.
It just gives them so much certainty. Independent data. It quantified for our clients, and gave them peace of mind.
Microburbs.com.au is a great tool to help you understand a suburb. It relies heavily on census data, but provides a quick, easy, and free way to visualise a range of interesting types of data.
The granular data is a massive standout. You can't get that anywhere else. I always recommend Microburbs.
No other platform I've seen gives the growth forecast or back-tests it.
We're fully embedded with Microburbs.
Investors and homebuyers, in their own words
Google reviews from people who paid for a report, and customers who said it on a recorded call and agreed to be quoted.
Microburbs definitely has that feeling of thoroughness and quality and insight, all in one.
Being able to provide transparent data to businesses and consumers is really important, and helpful for people to make informed decisions. Data that's opaque and difficult to find doesn't help anyone. What you're providing is a fantastic service.
This is an absolute game changer. I've bought several investment properties during the past ten years and each purchase involves so many hours of research. I am so impressed with Microburbs.
I wish I had known this tool earlier as I could have avoided a few mistakes. It identifies things like nearby public housing that are hard to spot during inspections.
An excellent tool. Only if I knew about this 10 years ago. Microburbs gives so much valuable insight into areas you are looking to purchase in.
Luke and his team created an awesome product and website. If you're looking to pick a suburb for your home or investment property and want data to guide you, their website is a game-changer.
Microburbs provides unmatched level of detail from suburb reports all the way to ultra localised property reports. The team is also available to help you analyse the data.
CoreLogic has an error rate of around 13 per cent, you have around 6 per cent. It’s amazing.
Your services were a big help in my search and truly contributed to me finding a suitable home.
The suburb reports were invaluable when it came to selecting the appropriate suburbs and streets.
