For investors

Investment overview.

Gross rental yield on houses sits at 2.76% (median rent $345/wk against a $649,000 price tag). Units yield 6.38% gross, often the better cash-flow play for first-time investors. Renter share is modest (25%), so the rental pool is smaller and tenant demand can be patchier than in higher-density suburbs.
