Stanley market and investor summary

In Stanley, VIC 3747, houses show a gross rental yield of 1.9%. House prices have moved +14.0% over the past year. At 5.7% 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 1.9% will not cover holding costs in the early years, so the case leans on price appreciation. Demand is softer at 5.7% vacancy, so longer gaps between tenants are more likely and worth building into the numbers. Houses also take time to sell, around 157 days on market, so plan for a slower exit if you ever need one.

Living in Stanley: people, income and schools

Stanley is home to around 371 people, a number that has held fairly steady over five years. At a median age of 53, it reads as an older, established demographic, and 86% 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 $76,000 a year (about $1,470 a week). On socio-economic measures it ranks comfortably above the national middle (7 out of 10 on the ABS advantage index). Incomes have risen about 19% over five years, which tends to underpin what local buyers can pay.
