Earlston market and investor summary
Earlston (VIC 3669) runs a median house price of $585K, with houses yielding a gross 5.4%. At 0.8% vacancy, it is a tight rental market that favours landlords.
For an investor, the rent-to-price maths here leans toward cashflow: a gross house yield near 5.4% does more of the early heavy lifting than capital growth usually would at this price point. Rental demand looks steady, with vacancy at 0.8% and a resident base that is not shrinking.
Living in Earlston: people, income and schools
Earlston has a resident population of roughly 82, a number that has held fairly steady over five years. The median age is 61, an older, established demographic, and 90% 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 $55,000 a year, or roughly $1,060 a week. On socio-economic measures it ranks around the national middle on the ABS advantage index (4 out of 10). At current prices a median house runs to a steep 10.6 times local household income, so affordability is a genuine constraint on local buyers. Incomes have risen about 13% over five years, which tends to underpin what local buyers can pay.
