Wahgunyah market and investor summary

Wahgunyah (VIC 3687) runs a median house price of $470K, with houses yielding a gross 4.7%. House prices have moved -9.7% over the past year. At 2.3% vacancy, it is a broadly balanced rental market.

For an investor, the rent-to-price profile sits mid-range: a gross house yield near 4.7% is neither a standout cashflow play nor a pure growth bet. Houses also take time to sell, around 63 days on market, so plan for a slower exit if you ever need one.

Wahgunyah has a resident population of roughly 1,061, a number that has held fairly steady over five years. The median age is 49, skewed a little older, and 80% of homes are owner-occupied. Owner-occupiers dominate, so stock turns over slowly and listings can be thin when you are trying to buy.
