Why Property Investors Lose Money Without Suburb Data
Too many Australian investors buy property based on 'hot tips' or what friends recommend. Without proper suburb-level data, they risk overpaying, missing hidden risks, or locking into low-yield areas.
The Cost of Guesswork
Investors who don't check yield, vacancy rates, and growth trends often:
• Buy in suburbs that are already overvalued.
• Miss rental demand signals.
• Ignore future infrastructure or demographic shifts.
The Key Metrics You Need
Before investing, look at:
• Rental yield: How much rent you'll get relative to price.
• Capital growth: Past 10 years + planned infrastructure.
• Vacancy rates: Indicates demand.
• Crime & lifestyle factors: Impacts long-term tenant demand.
