Nugent market and investor summary
Nugent (TAS 7172) runs a median house price of $885K, with houses yielding a gross 3.7%. At 0.7% 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 3.7% is neither a standout cashflow play nor a pure growth bet. Rental demand looks steady, with vacancy at 0.7% and a resident base that is not shrinking.
Living in Nugent: people, income and schools
Nugent is home to around 117 people, and the area has been growing steadily, up about 10% over five years. The median age is 41, skewed a little older, and 88% 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 $62,000 a year, or roughly $1,200 a week. On socio-economic measures it ranks toward the more disadvantaged end of the ABS advantage index (2 out of 10). At current prices a median house runs to a steep 14.2 times local household income, so affordability is a genuine constraint on local buyers. Incomes have risen about 18% over five years, which tends to underpin what local buyers can pay.
It is roughly 40 km from the CBD.
