Investment overview
Gross rental yield on houses sits at 2.43% (median rent $650/wk against a $1,392,500 price tag). Units yield 8.53% gross, often the better cash-flow play for first-time investors. Renter share is modest (7%), so the rental pool is smaller and tenant demand can be patchier than in higher-density suburbs. The 12-month growth of +16% adds a capital-growth case on top of the yield.
