Yarramalong market and investor summary

In Yarramalong, NSW 2259, the median house sells for around $1.5M, on a gross rental yield of 2.7% for houses. House prices have moved +5.9% over the past year and +6.3% over three years. At 10.9% 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 2.7% will not cover holding costs in the early years, so the case leans on price appreciation. 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 109 days on market, so plan for a slower exit if you ever need one.

Living in Yarramalong: people, income and schools

Yarramalong has a resident population of roughly 329, and the area has been growing steadily, up about 11% over five years. At a median age of 44, it reads as skewed a little older, and 94% 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 $134,000 a year (about $2,570 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 11.0 times local household income, so affordability is a genuine constraint on local buyers. Locally, around 32% of household income goes to mortgage repayments, a level usually flagged as mortgage stress.
