For investors

Investment overview.

Gross rental yield on houses sits at 3.17% (median rent $670/wk against a $1,100,000 price tag). Renter share is modest (12%), so the rental pool is smaller and tenant demand can be patchier than in higher-density suburbs. The 12-month growth of +10% adds a capital-growth case on top of the yield.
