Tahmoor market and investor summary

In Tahmoor, NSW 2573, the median house sells for around $985K, on a gross rental yield of 3.4% for houses. House prices have moved +9.1% over the past year. At 3.5% 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 3.4% will not cover holding costs in the early years, so the case leans on price appreciation.
