Knowsley market and investor summary
In Knowsley, VIC 3523, houses show a gross rental yield of 5.2%. At 5.3% vacancy, it is a softer rental market with more choice for tenants.
For an investor, the rent-to-price maths here leans toward cashflow: a gross house yield near 5.2% does more of the early heavy lifting than capital growth usually would at this price point. Demand is softer at 5.3% vacancy, so longer gaps between tenants are more likely and worth building into the numbers. Houses also take time to sell, around 82 days on market, so plan for a slower exit if you ever need one.
Living in Knowsley: people, income and schools
Knowsley has a resident population of roughly 168, and the area has been growing steadily, up about 10% over five years. At a median age of 47, it reads as skewed a little older, and 86% 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 $85,000 a year (about $1,630 a week). On socio-economic measures it ranks toward the more disadvantaged end of the ABS advantage index (2 out of 10). Locally, around 30% of household income goes to mortgage repayments, a level usually flagged as mortgage stress.
