Eli Waters market and investor summary
In Eli Waters, QLD 4655, the median house sells for around $790K, on a gross rental yield of 4.3% for houses. House prices have moved +14.3% over the past year and +35.2% over three years. At 3.2% vacancy, it is a softer rental market with more choice for tenants.
For an investor, the rent-to-price profile sits mid-range: a gross house yield near 4.3% is neither a standout cashflow play nor a pure growth bet. If you are weighing units rather than houses, a pipeline of new approvals is worth watching as future supply that can hold back apartment price and rent growth.
Living in Eli Waters: people, income and schools
Eli Waters has a resident population of roughly 3,758, and the area has been growing steadily, up about 12% over five years. At a median age of 48, it reads as skewed a little older, and families account for 75% of households.
The typical household income runs to around $54,000 a year (about $1,040 a week). On socio-economic measures it ranks toward the more disadvantaged end of the ABS advantage index (2 out of 10). At current prices a median house runs to a steep 14.6 times local household income, so affordability is a genuine constraint on local buyers.
