Mardi market and investor summary

In Mardi, NSW 2259, the median house sells for around $1.1M, on a gross rental yield of 3.8% for houses. House prices have moved +8.0% over the past year and +20.9% over three years. At 1.4% vacancy, it is a tight rental market that favours landlords.

For an investor, the rent-to-price profile sits mid-range: a gross house yield near 3.8% is neither a standout cashflow play nor a pure growth bet. Rental demand looks steady, with vacancy at 1.4% and a resident base that is not shrinking.
