Kaarimba market and investor summary

In Kaarimba, VIC 3635, the median house sells for around $600K, on a gross rental yield of 3.1% for houses. At 4.0% vacancy, it is a softer rental market with more choice for tenants.

For an investor, this reads as a capital-growth market more than a cashflow one. A gross house yield around 3.1% will not cover holding costs in the early years, so the case leans on price appreciation. Demand is softer at 4.0% vacancy, so longer gaps between tenants are more likely and worth building into the numbers.

Living in Kaarimba: people, income and schools

Kaarimba has a resident population of roughly 93, a number that has held fairly steady over five years. At a median age of 46, it reads as skewed a little older, and 74% 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 $94,000 a year (about $1,810 a week). On socio-economic measures it ranks around the national middle on the ABS advantage index (4 out of 10). At current prices a median house runs to about 6.4 times local household income, in line with much of metropolitan Australia. Incomes have risen about 13% over five years, which tends to underpin what local buyers can pay.
