Baskerville market and investor summary

In Baskerville, WA 6056, the median house sells for around $2.2M, on a gross rental yield of 1.5% for houses. House prices have moved +16.1% over the past year and +27.7% over three years. At 3.5% vacancy, it is a softer rental market with more choice for tenants.

For an investor, this reads as a capital-growth market more than a cashflow one. A gross house yield around 1.5% will not cover holding costs in the early years, so the case leans on price appreciation. Houses also take time to sell, around 258 days on market, so plan for a slower exit if you ever need one.

Living in Baskerville: people, income and schools

About 302 people live in Baskerville, and the area has been growing steadily, up about 12% over five years. At a median age of 49, it reads as skewed a little older, and 75% of homes are owner-occupied. Owner-occupiers dominate, so stock turns over slowly and listings can be thin when you are trying to buy.

The typical household income runs to around $109,000 a year (about $2,090 a week). On socio-economic measures it ranks around the national middle on the ABS advantage index (4 out of 10). At current prices a median house runs to a steep 20.7 times local household income, so affordability is a genuine constraint on local buyers. Incomes have risen about 12% over five years, which tends to underpin what local buyers can pay.
