A suburb that has improved greatly since it was gazetted in 1971, Charnwood has been performing admirably over the five years to June 2018.
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.
