Pemulwuy market and investor summary
Pemulwuy (NSW 2145) runs a median house price of $1.4M, with houses yielding a gross 3.6%. House prices have moved +1.1% over the past year and +6.0% over three years. At 2.1% vacancy, it is a broadly balanced rental market.
For an investor, the rent-to-price profile sits mid-range: a gross house yield near 3.6% is neither a standout cashflow play nor a pure growth bet. 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 Pemulwuy: people, income and schools
About 5,532 people live in Pemulwuy, a number that has held fairly steady over five years. The median age is 37, broadly working-age, and 72% 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 $143,000 a year, or roughly $2,760 a week. On socio-economic measures it ranks comfortably above the national middle (8 out of 10 on the ABS advantage index). At current prices a median house runs to a steep 9.5 times local household income, so affordability is a genuine constraint on local buyers. Locally, around 32% of household income goes to mortgage repayments, a level usually flagged as mortgage stress.
