Pinjarra market and investor summary
In Pinjarra, WA 6208, the median house sells for around $700K, on a gross rental yield of 4.3% for houses. House prices have moved +22.6% over the past year and +68.9% over three years. At 2.2% vacancy, it is a broadly balanced rental market.
For an investor, the rent-to-price profile sits mid-range: a gross house yield near 4.3% is neither a standout cashflow play nor a pure growth bet.
Living in Pinjarra: people, income and schools
Pinjarra has a resident population of roughly 4,914, and the area has been growing steadily, up about 18% over five years. At a median age of 43, it reads as skewed a little older, and families account for 70% of households.
The typical household income runs to around $59,000 a year (about $1,140 a week). On socio-economic measures it ranks toward the more disadvantaged end of the ABS advantage index (3 out of 10).
