Burpengary East market and investor summary
In Burpengary East, QLD 4505, the median house sells for around $1.2M, on a gross rental yield of 3.2% for houses. House prices have moved +22.9% over the past year. At 2.2% 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 3.2% will not cover holding costs in the early years, so the case leans on price appreciation.
Living in Burpengary East: people, income and schools
Burpengary East has a resident population of roughly 9,654, and the area has been growing steadily, up about 20% over five years. At a median age of 38, it reads as broadly working-age, and 78% 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 $95,000 a year (about $1,820 a week). On socio-economic measures it ranks around the national middle on the ABS advantage index (5 out of 10). At current prices a median house runs to a steep 12.3 times local household income, so affordability is a genuine constraint on local buyers. Incomes have risen about 13% over five years, which tends to underpin what local buyers can pay.
