Enfield market and investor summary

In Enfield, NSW 2136, the median house sells for around $2.4M, on a gross rental yield of 2.4% for houses. House prices have moved -4.3% over the past year and +22.3% over three years. At 2.0% vacancy, it is a tight rental market that favours landlords.

For an investor, this reads as a capital-growth market more than a cashflow one. A gross house yield around 2.4% will not cover holding costs in the early years, so the case leans on price appreciation. Rental demand looks steady, with vacancy at 2.0% and a resident base that is not shrinking.
