If Beachmere maintains 3%+ annual growth and vacancy stays below 1.5%, median prices could reach $1,166,936 within 3 years with yields compressing slightly as capital values rise.

A market correction or interest rate shock could see prices in Beachmere pull back 10-15% from $1,014,727, with vacancy rising to 3.8% and rental yields softening as tenants gain leverage.
