For investors
Investment overview.
Gross rental yield on houses sits at 3.84% (median rent $175/wk against a $237,000 price tag). Units yield 4.09% gross, often the better cash-flow play for first-time investors. Renter share is modest (28%), so the rental pool is smaller and tenant demand can be patchier than in higher-density suburbs.
