If Cronulla shows a moderate or high flood-risk rating, that does not necessarily rule it out as a purchase. Many highly desirable Sydney suburbs carry some flood exposure. What matters is the specific land parcel: is it in a high-probability zone, a low-probability zone, or outside mapped flood area entirely? Your conveyancer can obtain that answer from the Section 10.7 certificate. Flood-risk ratings can also affect lending conditions, so discuss the rating with your mortgage broker before committing.
