Concord West market and investor summary

In Concord West, NSW 2138, the median house sells for around $2.8M, on a gross rental yield of 2.0% for houses. House prices have moved -3.1% over the past year. At 1.8% 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 2.0% will not cover holding costs in the early years, so the case leans on price appreciation. Rental demand looks steady, with vacancy at 1.8% and a resident base that is not shrinking.

Living in Concord West: people, income and schools

About 6,178 people live in Concord West, a number that has held fairly steady over five years. At a median age of 42, it reads as skewed a little older, and 73% 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 $122,000 a year (about $2,350 a week). On socio-economic measures it ranks among the most advantaged in the country (10 out of 10 on the ABS advantage index). At current prices a median house runs to a steep 22.9 times local household income, so affordability is a genuine constraint on local buyers. Incomes have risen about 22% over five years, which tends to underpin what local buyers can pay.
