Tallai market and investor summary

Tallai (QLD 4213) runs a median house price of $1.9M, with houses yielding a gross 3.3%. House prices have moved +11.4% over the past year. At 4.1% 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 3.3% will not cover holding costs in the early years, so the case leans on price appreciation. Demand is softer at 4.1% vacancy, so longer gaps between tenants are more likely and worth building into the numbers.

Living in Tallai: people, income and schools

Tallai is home to around 4,465 people, a number that has held fairly steady over five years. The median age is 44, skewed a little older, and 87% 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 $114,000 a year, or roughly $2,200 a week. On socio-economic measures it ranks comfortably above the national middle (8 out of 10 on the ABS advantage index). At current prices a median house runs to a steep 16.8 times local household income, so affordability is a genuine constraint on local buyers. Incomes have risen about 18% over five years, which tends to underpin what local buyers can pay.

There are 13 schools within about 5km, testing a little above the national school average on ICSEA. It is roughly 74 km from the CBD. It is fairly car-dependent; the suburb scores 8 for walkability out of 100. Fixed broadband is delivered over the NBN's Fibre to the Node.
