Thin — worth an offer, not the asking price

Rented normally, you'd make about $184 a month.

That is thin: one empty month wipes out 7 months of that profit. The rent rests on 26 similar homes letting within 1.9 km, so treat it as a guide. The problem is the gap between them is too small to absorb anything going wrong.

Why it works

11.22% return before costs — above-market
Rent over price, before any costs. Useful for comparing streets; it is not money you keep.Two properties on the same yield can leave you very different amounts. See what you keep →
Passes the lender's rate test at 6.5% — lender-friendly
Lenders test the rent against a stressed rate, not the one you are quoted. This clears it.The cover level is each lender’s own policy, not law — treat it as the shape of the test. See the lender's view →

Why to be cautious

-0.0% a year over five years — you tie up a lot of cash for what it returns
The capital you tie up is large relative to what the investment returns over five years.A lower offer or a smaller deposit changes this more than a higher rent does. Try a lower offer →

What would have to be true?
Nothing — it works at the asking price
The rent covers the mortgage, the running costs and the tax at the $150,000 asked, so there is no discount this card has to name. A lower price would be upside, not a condition.
worked back from the rent
