Wollombi market and investor summary

In Wollombi, NSW 2325, the median house sells for around $1.1M. At 10.9% vacancy, it is a softer rental market with more choice for tenants.

Demand is softer at 10.9% vacancy, so longer gaps between tenants are more likely and worth building into the numbers. Houses also take time to sell, around 132 days on market, so plan for a slower exit if you ever need one.

Living in Wollombi: people, income and schools

Wollombi is home to around 301 people, a number that has held fairly steady over five years. At a median age of 55, it reads as an older, established demographic, and 86% 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 $87,000 a year (about $1,670 a week). On socio-economic measures it ranks toward the more disadvantaged end of the ABS advantage index (1 out of 10). At current prices a median house runs to a steep 13.2 times local household income, so affordability is a genuine constraint on local buyers. Locally, around 31% of household income goes to mortgage repayments, a level usually flagged as mortgage stress.

There is 1 school within about 5km, testing below the national school average on ICSEA. It is fairly car-dependent; the suburb scores 32 for walkability out of 100.
