Investment overview

Gross rental yield on houses sits at 5.92% (median rent $390/wk against a $342,500 price tag). Renter share is modest (23%), so the rental pool is smaller and tenant demand can be patchier than in higher-density suburbs. The 12-month growth of +7% adds a capital-growth case on top of the yield.
