THE MARKET

  • Transport: Standard suburban transport access

BULL CASE

If Taranganba maintains 3%+ annual growth and vacancy stays below 2.1%, median prices could reach $1,030,571 within 3 years with yields compressing slightly as capital values rise.

BEAR CASE

A market correction or interest rate shock could see prices in Taranganba pull back 10-15% from $896,149, 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
  • - Flood risk: MODERATE (qld_elevation_proxy) — part of the suburb sits near waterways or in a mapped flood-prone area

THE PLAY

  • Entry range: $806,534$985,764
  • Minimum gross yield to target: 4.5%
  • Watch signal: vacancy dropping below 2% and days on market falling below 35
