Crib Point market and investor summary

Crib Point (VIC 3919) runs a median house price of $785K, with houses yielding a gross 4.0%. House prices have moved +4.5% over the past year. At 1.3% vacancy, it is a tight rental market that favours landlords.

For an investor, the rent-to-price profile sits mid-range: a gross house yield near 4.0% is neither a standout cashflow play nor a pure growth bet. Houses also take time to sell, around 99 days on market, so plan for a slower exit if you ever need one.

Living in Crib Point: people, income and schools

Crib Point has a resident population of roughly 3,343, a number that has held fairly steady over five years. The median age is 39, broadly working-age, and 80% of homes are owner-occupied. Owner-occupiers dominate, so stock turns over slowly and listings can be thin when you are trying to buy.

Households here earn a median of about $75,000 a year, or roughly $1,450 a week. On socio-economic measures it ranks toward the more disadvantaged end of the ABS advantage index (3 out of 10). At current prices a median house runs to a steep 10.4 times local household income, so affordability is a genuine constraint on local buyers.
