Pickering Brook market and investor summary

Pickering Brook (WA 6076) runs a median house price of $1.1M, with houses yielding a gross 1.8%. House prices have moved +2.6% over the past year and +71.6% over three years. At 5.1% vacancy, it is a softer rental market with more choice for tenants.

For an investor, this reads as a capital-growth market more than a cashflow one. A gross house yield around 1.8% will not cover holding costs in the early years, so the case leans on price appreciation. Demand is softer at 5.1% vacancy, so longer gaps between tenants are more likely and worth building into the numbers.

Living in Pickering Brook: people, income and schools

Pickering Brook has a resident population of roughly 579, a number that has held fairly steady over five years. The median age is 46, skewed a little older, and 81% 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 $92,000 a year, or roughly $1,760 a week. On socio-economic measures it ranks among the most advantaged in the country (9 out of 10 on the ABS advantage index). At current prices a median house runs to a steep 12.1 times local household income, so affordability is a genuine constraint on local buyers. Locally, around 33% of household income goes to mortgage repayments, a level usually flagged as mortgage stress.

It is roughly 32 km from the CBD.
