Raymond Terrace market and investor summary

In Raymond Terrace, NSW 2324, the median house sells for around $765K, on a gross rental yield of 4.3% for houses. House prices have moved +12.0% over the past year and +20.6% over three years. At 1.4% vacancy, it is a tight rental market that favours landlords.
