Eppalock market and investor summary

In Eppalock, VIC 3551, houses show a gross rental yield of 2.7%. At 2.4% 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 2.7% will not cover holding costs in the early years, so the case leans on price appreciation.
