Mambourin market and investor summary
In Mambourin, VIC 3024, the median house sells for around $650K, on a gross rental yield of 3.7% for houses. House prices have moved +4.8% over the past year and +1.2% over three years. At 7.8% 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 3.7% is neither a standout cashflow play nor a pure growth bet. Demand is softer at 7.8% vacancy, so longer gaps between tenants are more likely and worth building into the numbers. Houses also take time to sell, around 81 days on market, so plan for a slower exit if you ever need one.
Living in Mambourin: people, income and schools
Mambourin is home to around 315 people, and the area has been growing steadily, up about 30% over five years. At a median age of 38, it reads as broadly working-age, and 75% 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 $123,000 a year (about $2,360 a week). On socio-economic measures it ranks around the national middle on the ABS advantage index (5 out of 10). At current prices a median house runs to roughly 5.3 times local household income, leaving more headroom than most capital-city markets. Incomes have risen about 31% over five years, which tends to underpin what local buyers can pay.
