Durack market and investor summary

In Durack, QLD 4077, the median house sells for around $1M, on a gross rental yield of 3.5% for houses. House prices have moved +17.3% over the past year and +54.3% over three years. At 0.7% 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 3.5% is neither a standout cashflow play nor a pure growth bet. Rental demand looks steady, with vacancy at 0.7% and a resident base that is not shrinking.
