For investors
Investment overview.
Gross rental yield on houses sits at 2.54% (median rent $220/wk against a $450,000 price tag). Units yield 6.22% gross, often the better cash-flow play for first-time investors. Renter share is modest (23%), so the rental pool is smaller and tenant demand can be patchier than in higher-density suburbs. The 12-month growth of +14.7% adds a capital-growth case on top of the yield.
