Investment overview
Gross rental yield on houses sits at 2.87% (median rent $725/wk against a $1,312,500 price tag). Renter share is modest (9%), so the rental pool is smaller and tenant demand can be patchier than in higher-density suburbs. The 12-month growth of +6.7% adds a capital-growth case on top of the yield.
