Ercildoune market and investor summary
In Ercildoune, VIC 3352, the median house sells for around $645K, on a gross rental yield of 4.0% for houses. At 1.7% 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 4.0% is neither a standout cashflow play nor a pure growth bet. Rental demand looks steady, with vacancy at 1.7% and a resident base that is not shrinking.
Living in Ercildoune: people, income and schools
Ercildoune has a resident population of roughly 90, and the area has been growing steadily, up about 12% over five years. At a median age of 43, it reads as skewed a little older, and 77% of homes are owner-occupied. Owner-occupiers dominate, so stock turns over slowly and listings can be thin when you are trying to buy.
The typical household income runs to around $97,000 a year (about $1,860 a week). On socio-economic measures it ranks comfortably above the national middle (7 out of 10 on the ABS advantage index). At current prices a median house runs to about 6.7 times local household income, in line with much of metropolitan Australia. Incomes have risen about 19% over five years, which tends to underpin what local buyers can pay.
