Flying Fox market and investor summary
In Flying Fox, QLD 4275, the median house sells for around $1.4M, on a gross rental yield of 4.0% for houses. At 2.5% vacancy, it is a broadly balanced rental market.
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. Houses also take time to sell, around 76 days on market, so plan for a slower exit if you ever need one.
Living in Flying Fox: people, income and schools
Flying Fox is home to around 61 people, and the area has been growing steadily, up about 8% over five years. At a median age of 44, it reads as skewed a little older, and 79% 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 $143,000 a year (about $2,750 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 a steep 10.0 times local household income, so affordability is a genuine constraint on local buyers. Incomes have risen about 20% over five years, which tends to underpin what local buyers can pay.
There is 1 school within about 5km, testing close to the national school average on ICSEA. Flying Fox sits about 72 km from the CBD. Fixed broadband is delivered over the NBN's Fixed Wireless.
