Investment overview
Gross rental yield on houses sits at 3.86% (median rent $483/wk against a $650,000 price tag). Units yield 5.02% gross, often the better cash-flow play for first-time investors. Renter share is modest (22%), so the rental pool is smaller and tenant demand can be patchier than in higher-density suburbs.
