Kurmond market and investor summary

In Kurmond, NSW 2757, the median house sells for around $1.6M, on a gross rental yield of 2.3% for houses. House prices have moved +7.5% over the past year. At 7.0% 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 2.3% will not cover holding costs in the early years, so the case leans on price appreciation. Demand is softer at 7.0% vacancy, so longer gaps between tenants are more likely and worth building into the numbers. Houses also take time to sell, around 75 days on market, so plan for a slower exit if you ever need one.

Living in Kurmond: people, income and schools

About 850 people live in Kurmond, a number that has held fairly steady 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 $101,000 a year (about $1,940 a week). On socio-economic measures it ranks comfortably above the national middle (8 out of 10 on the ABS advantage index). At current prices a median house runs to a steep 15.9 times local household income, so affordability is a genuine constraint on local buyers. Locally, around 35% of household income goes to mortgage repayments, a level usually flagged as mortgage stress.

Families have 7 schools within roughly 5km to choose from, testing close to the national school average on ICSEA. Kurmond sits about 59 km from the CBD. It is fairly car-dependent; the suburb scores 1 for walkability out of 100. Fixed broadband is delivered over the NBN's Fibre to the Curb.
