For investors
Investment overview.
Gross rental yield on houses sits at 2.16% (median rent $660/wk against a $1,587,500 price tag). Units yield 3.24% gross, often the better cash-flow play for first-time investors. Renter share is modest (14%), so the rental pool is smaller and tenant demand can be patchier than in higher-density suburbs.
