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.

Wyreema QLD Investment Brief

## 1. Investment Verdict Hold – the suburb’s Investment Scorecard of 56.0 / 100 signals a neutral outlook, indicating that Wyreema currently offers neither a strong buying incentive nor a clear sell signal.

---

## 2. Market Overview - Median house price: $899,489 - Median unit price: $844,558 - 1‑yr price growth: +18.6 % - 5‑yr CAGR: +3.2 % per year - 3‑yr growth forecast: +13.5 %

*Interpretation* – The 18.6 % jump over the past year shows strong recent upside, while the longer‑term 3.2 % CAGR and the 13.5 % three‑year forecast suggest moderate, sustainable growth. Because days on market is not supplied, we cannot gauge the speed of transactions, but the price momentum leans slightly toward sellers, whereas the modest long‑term growth keeps buyers interested.

---

## 3. Rental Market - Median weekly rent: $590 - Gross rental yield: 3.4 %

*Vacancy rate* and *demand rating* are not provided, so we cannot quantify those factors. At a 3.4 % yield, the rental return sits near the national average for regional centres, indicating a steady but not spectacular income stream for investors.

---

## 4. Short‑Term Rental Opportunity No data on STR nightly rate, occupancy, or estimated annual revenue are supplied. Consequently we cannot calculate an STR gross yield or compare it to the long‑term rental (LTR) yield of 3.4 %. With the information at hand, LTR remains the only quantifiable rental option.

---

## 5. Infrastructure & Growth Drivers The data set does not list any known projects, transport upgrades, or major employment hubs in Wyreema. Without these details we cannot identify specific catalysts or constraints on future demand.

---

## 6. Bull Case If the forecasted 13.5 % growth over the next three years materialises, the median house price could rise from $899,489 to roughly $1,194,000 (13.5 % compounded annually for three years). This would deliver a capital gain of about $295,000 for a property bought at today’s median price, assuming no major supply shock.

---

## 7. Risks | Risk | Quantified Concern (where data exist) | |------|---------------------------------------| | Vacancy risk | Vacancy rate not disclosed; a 3.4 % yield suggests moderate risk but cannot be measured precisely. | | Single‑employer dependency | No employment‑base data provided; cannot assess concentration risk. | | Supply pipeline | No information on upcoming developments; an influx of new dwellings could pressure prices and yields. | | Rate sensitivity | As with all property, higher interest rates could dampen buyer demand and compress price growth. |

---

## 8. The Play - Entry price range: Target purchases between $850,000 and $950,000, giving room to negotiate below the median house price of $899,489. - Minimum yield to target: Aim for at least 3.4 % gross rental yield to match the current suburb average. - Watch signals: * Confirmation of the 3‑year growth forecast (13.5 %). * Any release of days‑on‑market data or vacancy statistics. * Announcement of infrastructure or employment projects in the area. - Recommended strategy: Maintain a hold stance. Existing owners should keep properties for capital‑gain upside, while new investors should only enter if they can acquire within the $850k‑$950k band and achieve the 3.4 % yield threshold. Without clear STR data, focus on long‑term rental income.
