Cooma market and investor summary

In Cooma, VIC 3616, houses show a gross rental yield of 2.8%. At 2.7% 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 2.8% will not cover holding costs in the early years, so the case leans on price appreciation. Houses also take time to sell, around 61 days on market, so plan for a slower exit if you ever need one.

Living in Cooma: people, income and schools

About 94 people live in Cooma, a number that has held fairly steady over five years. At a median age of 46, it reads as skewed a little older, and 91% 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 $72,000 a year (about $1,380 a week). On socio-economic measures it ranks around the national middle on the ABS advantage index (4 out of 10). Incomes have risen about 13% over five years, which tends to underpin what local buyers can pay.
