Monteith market and investor summary
In Monteith, SA 5253, the median house sells for around $830K, on a gross rental yield of 3.3% for houses. At 1.2% vacancy, it is a tight rental market that favours landlords.
For an investor, this reads as a capital-growth market more than a cashflow one. A gross house yield around 3.3% will not cover holding costs in the early years, so the case leans on price appreciation. Rental demand looks steady, with vacancy at 1.2% and a resident base that is not shrinking.
Living in Monteith: people, income and schools
Monteith is home to around 104 people, and the area has been growing steadily, up about 6% over five years. At a median age of 48, it reads as skewed a little older, and families account for 65% of households.
The typical household income runs to around $68,000 a year (about $1,310 a week). On socio-economic measures it ranks toward the more disadvantaged end of the ABS advantage index (1 out of 10).
