Gross rental yield on houses sits at 4.32% (median rent $695/wk against a $837,500 price tag). Units yield 10.03% 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.
