Upper Duroby market and investor summary

In Upper Duroby, NSW 2486, the median house sells for around $1.1M, on a gross rental yield of 5.1% for houses. At 3.1% vacancy, it is a softer rental market with more choice for tenants.

For an investor, the rent-to-price profile sits mid-range: a gross house yield near 5.1% is neither a standout cashflow play nor a pure growth bet. Houses also take time to sell, around 180 days on market, so plan for a slower exit if you ever need one.

Living in Upper Duroby: people, income and schools

About 118 people live in Upper Duroby, a number that has held fairly steady over five years. At a median age of 54, it reads as an older, established demographic, and 88% 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 $72,000 a year (about $1,380 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 15.0 times local household income, so affordability is a genuine constraint on local buyers. Incomes have risen about 16% over five years, which tends to underpin what local buyers can pay.
