Bondi Beach market and investor summary

In Bondi Beach, NSW 2026, the median house sells for around $4.6M, on a gross rental yield of 2.2% for houses. House prices have moved +3.4% over the past year and +9.7% over three years. At 2.8% vacancy, it is a broadly balanced rental market.

For an investor, this reads as a capital-growth market more than a cashflow one. A gross house yield around 2.2% will not cover holding costs in the early years, so the case leans on price appreciation.

Bondi Beach is home to around 11,513 people, a number that has held fairly steady over five years. At a median age of 33, it reads as broadly working-age, with renters making up 66% of households. A renter base that size keeps demand for well-priced rentals fairly consistent, though rents do most of the work on the return.

On socio-economic measures it ranks among the most advantaged in the country (10 out of 10 on the ABS advantage index).
