Baldivis market and investor summary

In Baldivis, WA 6171, the median house sells for around $845K, on a gross rental yield of 4.3% for houses. House prices have moved +21.8% over the past year. At 2.5% vacancy, it is a broadly balanced rental market.

For an investor, the rent-to-price profile sits mid-range: a gross house yield near 4.3% is neither a standout cashflow play nor a pure growth bet.
