Pendle Hill market and investor summary

In Pendle Hill, NSW 2145, the median house sells for around $1.4M, on a gross rental yield of 2.6% for houses. House prices have moved +5.5% over the past year. At 1.8% 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 2.6% will not cover holding costs in the early years, so the case leans on price appreciation. Rental demand looks steady, with vacancy at 1.8% and a resident base that is not shrinking.

Living in Pendle Hill: people, income and schools
