Coombs Short-Term Rental (Airbnb) Market
Estimated revenue assumes year-round availability. Non-hosted short-stays are night-capped in some councils (e.g. 60 nights across most of Byron Shire, 180 in Ballina, Muswellbrook and parts of Greater Sydney) and levied in Victoria — the legal cap can cut achievable income well below this figure.

Coombs ACT Investment Brief
## 1. Investment Verdict Buy – the Investment Scorecard of 79.0 / 100 is the single figure that drives the recommendation.
## 2. Market Overview - Median house price: peer sources disagree by more than 10 %; the range is reported as $751,14 (the data set does not provide a complete range, so we must quote it exactly as given). - Growth trend: not supplied. - Days on market: not supplied.
*Signal:* With a high score but no clear median or trend data, buyers can negotiate from a position of uncertainty, while sellers may need to manage expectations around price variability.
## 3. Rental Market - Vacancy rate: not supplied. - Weekly rent: not supplied. - Gross yield: not supplied. - Demand rating: not supplied.
*Implication:* Without rental metrics, investors cannot quantify cash‑flow returns; the strong score suggests underlying fundamentals are favourable, but due diligence on rental performance is essential.
## 4. Short‑Term Rental Opportunity - STR nightly rate: not supplied. - Occupancy: not supplied. - Estimated annual revenue: not supplied.
*Conclusion:* We cannot assess whether long‑term rental (LTR) or short‑term rental (STR) would generate a higher yield in Coombs with the data provided.
## 5. Infrastructure & Growth Drivers - Known projects, transport links, employment base, and other demand drivers: not supplied.
*Observation:* The lack of infrastructure data means we cannot identify specific catalysts or constraints for future demand.
## 6. Bull Case Because growth, rental, and infrastructure figures are absent, we cannot model a numeric upside scenario. The 79 / 100 score implies potential upside, but investors should obtain detailed market and demographic data before quantifying it.
## 7. Risks - Vacancy risk: not supplied. - Single‑employer dependency: not supplied. - Supply pipeline: not supplied. - Interest‑rate sensitivity: not supplied.
*Note:* Proximity to Canberra’s CBD (within 5 km) would be a positive factor, not a risk, but we have no distance data to confirm.
## 8. The Play - Entry price range: not supplied (median range incomplete). - Minimum yield target: cannot be set without rental figures. - Watch signals: look for released median price ranges, rental vacancy trends, and any announced infrastructure projects. - Recommended strategy: Use the strong Investment Scorecard (79 / 100) as an initial green light, but conduct thorough on‑the‑ground research to fill the data gaps before committing capital.
