BULL CASE
If Clarke Creek maintains 3%+ annual growth and vacancy stays below 2.1%, median prices could reach $920,000 within 3 years with yields compressing slightly as capital values rise.
BEAR CASE
A market correction or interest rate shock could see prices in Clarke Creek pull back 10-15% from $800,000, with vacancy rising to 5.0% and rental yields softening as tenants gain leverage.
KEY RISKS
- Distance from CBD may limit long-term capital growth potential

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 4.0%.
- Entry range: N/A – N/A
- Minimum gross yield to target: 4.5%
