Colebee market and investor summary

In Colebee, NSW 2761, the median house sells for around $1.4M, on a gross rental yield of 3.2% for houses. House prices have moved +4.0% over the past year and +10.6% over three years. 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 Colebee: people, income and schools

Colebee has a resident population of roughly 4,914, a number that has held fairly steady over five years. At a median age of 33, 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 $168,000 a year (about $3,220 a week). On socio-economic measures it ranks around the national middle on the ABS advantage index (6 out of 10). At current prices a median house runs to about 8.3 times local household income, in line with much of metropolitan Australia. Incomes have risen about 20% over five years, which tends to underpin what local buyers can pay.
