For investors

Investment overview.

Gross rental yield on houses sits at 1.31% (median rent $240/wk against a $950,000 price tag). Units yield 3.09% gross, often the better cash-flow play for first-time investors. Renter share is modest (16%), so the rental pool is smaller and tenant demand can be patchier than in higher-density suburbs. The 12-month growth of +82.7% adds a capital-growth case on top of the yield.
