What the model is seeing
Café is the strongest scored format at 81/100, 10 points above retail at 71/100. The suburb verdict is PROCEED at 76/100.
No factor is in a tight band. Demand is 10/10, rent pressure 5/10, competition 4/10, and seasonality 3/10. The verdict comes from the weighted blend, not from one red flag.
Red Hill is the nearest scored suburb, about 1.2 km away. Café 81 here versus 72 there; demand 10/10 versus 7/10. Both figures are suburb scores, not a walk between the two shopfronts.
Existing notes name Given Terrace, Latrobe Terrace. Those names are not a rent quote, a visitor count, or a growth rate.
The model result is PROCEED. Local evidence is limited, so this screen is not a lease decision.
How to read these scores

Factor Breakdown
Location factors
Demand, rent, competition, seasonality, and tourism — scored and weighted for Australian commercial operators.
Business-Type Scores
How each format performs
Scores use engine-derived weights: cafés weight demand and rent most heavily; restaurants factor tourism; retail factors tourism and demand equally.
Methodology: Scores are engine-derived from five observable inputs (demand strength, rent pressure, competition density, seasonality risk, tourism dependency — each 1–10). These feed into business-type-specific weighted composites via a single scoring engine used across all markets. Scores are relative estimates calibrated across all Brisbane suburbs — a score of 80 indicates materially better conditions than 65; it is not a success probability or guarantee.
