Bunyip market and investor summary

Bunyip (VIC 3815) runs a median house price of $890K, with houses yielding a gross 3.3%. House prices have moved +13.3% over the past year and +20.2% over three years. At 0.5% 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 3.3% will not cover holding costs in the early years, so the case leans on price appreciation. Rental demand looks steady, with vacancy at 0.5% and a resident base that is not shrinking.

Bunyip is home to around 3,131 people, and the area has been growing steadily, up about 7% over five years. The median age is 38, broadly working-age, and 85% of homes are owner-occupied. Owner-occupiers dominate, so stock turns over slowly and listings can be thin when you are trying to buy.
