• Median weekly rent: $480/wk | Days on market: 109 (worsening)
• Tenant market — vacancy elevated, negotiate hard on rent.

If Wiangaree maintains 3%+ annual growth and vacancy stays below 2.1%, median prices could reach $402,500 within 3 years with yields compressing slightly as capital values rise.

A market correction or interest rate shock could see prices in Wiangaree pull back 10-15% from $350,000, with vacancy rising to 5.0% and rental yields softening as tenants gain leverage.

• Distance from CBD may limit long-term capital growth potential

• Werris Creek (NSW): $342,492 median, 5.8% yield, 4.7% 1yr growth
• Barmedman (NSW): $245,438 median, 4.0% yield, 8.0% 1yr growth
• Red Range (NSW): $420,000 median, 4.7% yield, 14.8% 1yr growth

Wiangaree offers balanced fundamentals but does not present an urgent buying signal. The market is in a cooling phase with moderate vacancy risk. Monitor vacancy trends and price movements over the next 6-12 months. Only enter if a property can be acquired at or below median pricing with yields exceeding 7.6%.

• Entry range: $315,000 – $385,000
• Minimum gross yield to target: 7.4%
• Watch signal: vacancy dropping below 2% and days on market falling below 35
