Broke market and investor summary

In Broke, NSW 2330, the median house sells for around $1.2M. House prices have moved +22.8% over the past year. At 4.2% vacancy, it is a softer rental market with more choice for tenants.

Demand is softer at 4.2% vacancy, so longer gaps between tenants are more likely and worth building into the numbers. Houses also take time to sell, around 78 days on market, so plan for a slower exit if you ever need one.

Living in Broke: people, income and schools

Broke is home to around 557 people, a number that has held fairly steady over five years. At a median age of 43, it reads as skewed a little older, and 81% of homes are owner-occupied. Owner-occupiers dominate, so stock turns over slowly and listings can be thin when you are trying to buy.
