Leneva market and investor summary

Leneva (VIC 3691) runs a median house price of $740K, with houses yielding a gross 4.5%. House prices have moved +12.7% over the past year. At 4.6% vacancy, it is a softer rental market with more choice for tenants.

For an investor, the rent-to-price profile sits mid-range: a gross house yield near 4.5% is neither a standout cashflow play nor a pure growth bet. Demand is softer at 4.6% vacancy, so longer gaps between tenants are more likely and worth building into the numbers. Houses also take time to sell, around 80 days on market, so plan for a slower exit if you ever need one.
