Bonnyrigg market and investor summary

Bonnyrigg (NSW 2177) runs a median house price of $1.3M, with houses yielding a gross 2.9%. House prices have moved +10.6% over the past year and +39.2% over three years. At 0.9% 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 2.9% will not cover holding costs in the early years, so the case leans on price appreciation. Rental demand looks steady, with vacancy at 0.9% and a resident base that is not shrinking.
