Tabooba market and investor summary

Tabooba (QLD 4285) runs a median house price of $1.4M, with houses yielding a gross 2.5%. At 0.8% 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 2.5% will not cover holding costs in the early years, so the case leans on price appreciation. Rental demand looks steady, with vacancy at 0.8% and a resident base that is not shrinking.

Living in Tabooba: people, income and schools

About 57 people live in Tabooba, and the area has been growing steadily, up about 16% over five years. The median age is 49, skewed a little older, and 75% of homes are owner-occupied. Owner-occupiers dominate, so stock turns over slowly and listings can be thin when you are trying to buy.

Households here earn a median of about $61,000 a year, or roughly $1,170 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 a steep 22.9 times local household income, so affordability is a genuine constraint on local buyers. Incomes have risen about 14% over five years, which tends to underpin what local buyers can pay.

It is roughly 74 km from the CBD. Fixed broadband is delivered over the NBN's Fixed Wireless.
