McMahons Point market and investor summary
McMahons Point (NSW 2060) runs a median house price of $4.6M, with houses yielding a gross 1.6%. House prices have moved -4.4% over the past year. At 2.6% vacancy, it is a broadly balanced rental market.
For an investor, this reads as a capital-growth market more than a cashflow one. A gross house yield around 1.6% will not cover holding costs in the early years, so the case leans on price appreciation.
