Hurstville Grove market and investor summary
In Hurstville Grove, NSW 2220, the median house sells for around $2.4M, on a gross rental yield of 2.2% for houses. House prices have moved -4.1% over the past year and -1.9% over three years. At 1.4% 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 2.2% will not cover holding costs in the early years, so the case leans on price appreciation. Rental demand looks steady, with vacancy at 1.4% and a resident base that is not shrinking.
Living in Hurstville Grove: people, income and schools
About 2,606 people live in Hurstville Grove, and the area has been growing steadily, up about 7% over five years. At a median age of 43, it reads as skewed a little older, and 83% 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 $126,000 a year (about $2,420 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 18.7 times local household income, so affordability is a genuine constraint on local buyers. Locally, around 36% of household income goes to mortgage repayments, a level usually flagged as mortgage stress.
