Boambee East market and investor summary

In Boambee East, NSW 2452, the median house sells for around $840K, on a gross rental yield of 4.3% for houses. House prices have moved +9.1% over the past year and +14.8% over three years. At 1.3% vacancy, it is a tight rental market that favours landlords.

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. Rental demand looks steady, with vacancy at 1.3% and a resident base that is not shrinking.

Living in Boambee East: people, income and schools

Boambee East is home to around 5,304 people, a number that has held fairly steady over five years. At a median age of 42, it reads as skewed a little older, and 73% 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 $73,000 a year (about $1,410 a week). On socio-economic measures it ranks toward the more disadvantaged end of the ABS advantage index (2 out of 10). At current prices a median house runs to a steep 11.5 times local household income, so affordability is a genuine constraint on local buyers. Locally, around 33% of household income goes to mortgage repayments, a level usually flagged as mortgage stress.

Families have 12 schools within roughly 5km to choose from, testing below the national school average on ICSEA. It is fairly car-dependent; the suburb scores 15 for walkability and 2 for transit out of 100. Fixed broadband is delivered over the NBN's Fibre to the Premises.
