Lima market and investor summary

In Lima, VIC 3673, houses show a gross rental yield of 2.8%. At 3.3% 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 2.8% will not cover holding costs in the early years, so the case leans on price appreciation. Houses also take time to sell, around 266 days on market, so plan for a slower exit if you ever need one.
