Investment overview
Gross rental yield on houses sits at 4.26% (median rent $615/wk against a $750,000 price tag). Units yield 7.44% gross, often the better cash-flow play for first-time investors. Renter share is modest (20%), so the rental pool is smaller and tenant demand can be patchier than in higher-density suburbs.
