Yarrawarrah market and investor summary
Yarrawarrah (NSW 2233) runs a median house price of $1.6M, with houses yielding a gross 3.2%. House prices have moved +4.5% over the past year and +5.5% over three years. At 2.1% vacancy, it is a broadly balanced rental market.
For an investor, this reads as a capital-growth market more than a cashflow one. A gross house yield around 3.2% will not cover holding costs in the early years, so the case leans on price appreciation.

Yarrawarrah is home to around 2,775 people, a number that has held fairly steady over five years. The median age is 42, skewed a little older, and 93% of homes are owner-occupied. Owner-occupiers dominate, so stock turns over slowly and listings can be thin when you are trying to buy.
