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.

Paradise Point QLD Investment Brief

## 1. Investment Verdict Hold – the Investment Scorecard of 54.0 / 100 is the only concrete metric we have, and it places Paradise Point in the middle‑ground zone where neither strong upside nor clear downside is evident.

## 2. Market Overview - Median price: The market‑wide median is reported only as a disputed range (peer sources disagree by >10%). The exact figures are not supplied, so we cannot quote a specific median. - Growth trend & days on market: No data are provided on price growth rates or average days on market, so we cannot identify whether the market currently favours buyers or sellers.

## 3. Rental Market - Vacancy rate, weekly rent, gross yield, demand rating: These figures are absent from the data set. Without them we cannot calculate gross yield or assess rental demand.

## 4. Short‑Term Rental Opportunity - STR nightly rate, occupancy, estimated annual revenue: No numbers are supplied, so we cannot compare long‑term rental (LTR) versus short‑term rental (STR) performance for this suburb.

## 5. Infrastructure & Growth Drivers - Projects, transport, employment base: The data set does not list any infrastructure initiatives, transport upgrades, or major employers in Paradise Point. Consequently we cannot pinpoint specific demand drivers or constraints.

## 6. Bull Case Because we lack baseline figures for price, rent, vacancy, and growth, we cannot model a quantified upside scenario. The only positive signal is the neutral Investment Scorecard (54 / 100), which suggests modest upside potential if market fundamentals improve, but we cannot attach concrete numbers.

## 7. Risks - Data‑driven risk assessment is limited: Without vacancy rates, rent levels, or supply pipeline information, we cannot quantify vacancy risk, over‑supply risk, or sensitivity to interest‑rate changes. - Employer concentration: No employment data are provided, so we cannot assess single‑employer dependency.

## 8. The Play - Entry range: Not determinable from the available data. - Minimum yield target: Cannot be set without known rental income and purchase price. - Watch signals: Look for the release of reliable median price figures, rental market statistics (vacancy, rent), and any announced infrastructure or development projects in the area. - Recommended strategy: Given the neutral Investment Scorecard and the lack of concrete market data, adopt a cautious “wait‑and‑see” approach. Monitor official statistics (e.g., CoreLogic, SQM Research) for the missing metrics before committing capital.

Bottom line: The only reliable figure we have is the Investment Scorecard of 54 / 100, which advises a Hold stance. All other analysis points remain inconclusive until the missing market, rental, and infrastructure data become available.
