In that period, house prices increased by 24.3%, and the current median value comes in at a little over $450,000. Landlords reap high returns of 5% on average from rents of $440 per week – coupled with the reasonable price tags, it’s unsurprising that buyers are not letting properties remain on the market for two months.
