Scottsdale market and investor summary

In Scottsdale, TAS 7260, the median house sells for around $475K, on a gross rental yield of 5.0% for houses. House prices have moved +8.3% over the past year and +20.1% over three years. At 1.2% vacancy, it is a tight rental market that favours landlords.

For an investor, the rent-to-price maths here leans toward cashflow: a gross house yield near 5.0% does more of the early heavy lifting than capital growth usually would at this price point. Rental demand looks steady, with vacancy at 1.2% and a resident base that is not shrinking. Houses also take time to sell, around 98 days on market, so plan for a slower exit if you ever need one.
