For investors
Investment overview.
Gross rental yield on houses sits at 3.31% (median rent $600/wk against a $941,688 price tag). Units yield 13.41% gross, often the better cash-flow play for first-time investors. Renter share is modest (14%), so the rental pool is smaller and tenant demand can be patchier than in higher-density suburbs. The 12-month growth of +20.7% adds a capital-growth case on top of the yield.
