Seabrook market and investor summary
In Seabrook, VIC 3028, the median house sells for around $815K, on a gross rental yield of 3.4% for houses. House prices have moved +3.8% over the past year. At 1.9% 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 3.4% will not cover holding costs in the early years, so the case leans on price appreciation.
Living in Seabrook: people, income and schools
About 4,952 people live in Seabrook, a count that has slipped about 2% over five years. At a median age of 40, it reads as 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.
The typical household income runs to around $106,000 a year (about $2,040 a week). On socio-economic measures it ranks around the national middle on the ABS advantage index (4 out of 10). At current prices a median house runs to about 7.7 times local household income, in line with much of metropolitan Australia. Incomes have risen about 23% over five years, which tends to underpin what local buyers can pay.
