Laharum market and investor summary
Laharum (VIC 3401) runs a median house price of $610K, with houses yielding a gross 3.2%.
For an investor, this reads as a capital-growth market more than a cashflow one. A gross house yield around 3.2% will not cover holding costs in the early years, so the case leans on price appreciation.
