Croudace Bay market and investor summary
Croudace Bay (NSW 2280) runs a median house price of $1.1M, with houses yielding a gross 3.3%. House prices have moved +4.9% over the past year. At 2.6% 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 3.3% will not cover holding costs in the early years, so the case leans on price appreciation.
Living in Croudace Bay: people, income and schools
Croudace Bay is home to around 641 people, a number that has held fairly steady over five years. The median age is 41, skewed a little older, and 83% 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 $105,000 a year, or roughly $2,010 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 a steep 10.1 times local household income, so affordability is a genuine constraint on local buyers. Locally, around 34% of household income goes to mortgage repayments, a level usually flagged as mortgage stress.
