West Point market and investor summary
West Point (QLD 4819) runs a median house price of $950K, with houses yielding a gross 2.9%. At 0.6% 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 2.9% will not cover holding costs in the early years, so the case leans on price appreciation. Rental demand looks steady, with vacancy at 0.6% and a resident base that is not shrinking. Houses also take time to sell, around 61 days on market, so plan for a slower exit if you ever need one.
Living in West Point: people, income and schools
West Point has a resident population of roughly 32, and the area has been growing steadily, up about 9% over five years. The median age is 64, an older, established demographic, and families account for 50% of households.
Households here earn a median of about $47,000 a year, or roughly $900 a week. On socio-economic measures it ranks toward the more disadvantaged end of the ABS advantage index (3 out of 10).

There is 1 school within about 5km, testing close to the national school average on ICSEA.
