Alderley market and investor summary

In Alderley, QLD 4051, the median house sells for around $1.7M, on a gross rental yield of 2.5% for houses. House prices have moved +12.7% over the past year and +35.9% over three years. At 1.8% vacancy, it is a tight rental market that favours landlords.

For an investor, this reads as a capital-growth market more than a cashflow one. A gross house yield around 2.5% will not cover holding costs in the early years, so the case leans on price appreciation. Rental demand looks steady, with vacancy at 1.8% and a resident base that is not shrinking.
