Investment overview

Gross rental yield on houses sits at 2.75% (median rent $625/wk against a $1,180,000 price tag). Units yield 3.22% gross, often the better cash-flow play for first-time investors. Renter share is modest (29%), so the rental pool is smaller and tenant demand can be patchier than in higher-density suburbs.
