Mindarie market and investor summary

Mindarie (WA 6030) runs a median house price of $1.4M, with houses yielding a gross 3.8%. House prices have moved +19.6% over the past year and +65.6% over three years. At 1.6% 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 1.6% and a resident base that is not shrinking. If you are weighing units rather than houses, a pipeline of new approvals is worth watching as future supply that can hold back apartment price and rent growth.

Living in Mindarie: people, income and schools

About 7,867 people live in Mindarie, and the area has been growing steadily, up about 12% over five years. The median age is 45, skewed a little older, and 84% of homes are owner-occupied. Owner-occupiers dominate, so stock turns over slowly and listings can be thin when you are trying to buy.

Households here earn a median of about $133,000 a year, or roughly $2,560 a week. On socio-economic measures it ranks comfortably above the national middle (7 out of 10 on the ABS advantage index).
