Investment overview

Gross rental yield on houses sits at 4.33% (median rent $525/wk against a $630,000 price tag). Units yield 7.88% gross, often the better cash-flow play for first-time investors. Renter share is modest (22%), so the rental pool is smaller and tenant demand can be patchier than in higher-density suburbs. The 12-month growth of +7.7% adds a capital-growth case on top of the yield.
