Holden Hill market and investor summary

Holden Hill (SA 5088) runs a median house price of $865K, with houses yielding a gross 3.7%. House prices have moved +12.9% over the past year and +35.2% over three years. At 0.8% 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 3.7% is neither a standout cashflow play nor a pure growth bet. Rental demand looks steady, with vacancy at 0.8% and a resident base that is not shrinking.

Living in Holden Hill: people, income and schools

Holden Hill is home to around 3,716 people, a number that has held fairly steady over five years. The median age is 37, broadly working-age, and families account for 66% of households.
