For investors
Investment overview.
Gross rental yield on houses sits at 5.99% (median rent $385/wk against a $334,000 price tag). Units yield 8.33% gross, often the better cash-flow play for first-time investors. Renter share is modest (11%), so the rental pool is smaller and tenant demand can be patchier than in higher-density suburbs.
