BULL CASE
If Eudunda maintains 3%+ annual growth and vacancy stays below 1.0%, median prices could reach $470,665 within 3 years with yields compressing slightly as capital values rise.
BEAR CASE
A market correction or interest rate shock could see prices in Eudunda pull back 10-15% from $409,274, with vacancy rising to 2.7% and rental yields softening as tenants gain leverage.
KEY RISKS
- Distance from CBD may limit long-term capital growth potential
COMPARABLE MARKETS

THE PLAY
Eudunda carries elevated risk that outweighs potential returns at current levels. A recovery market combined with low vacancy risk warrants caution. Avoid new acquisitions unless significant discount to median pricing is achievable. Re-evaluate if vacancy falls below 2.5% or annual price growth exceeds 3%.
- Entry range: $368,347 – $450,201
- Minimum gross yield to target: 4.5%
