BULL CASE
If Invermay maintains 3%+ annual growth and vacancy stays below 2.0%, median prices could reach $646,253 within 3 years with yields compressing slightly as capital values rise.
BEAR CASE
A market correction or interest rate shock could see prices in Invermay pull back 10-15% from $561,959, with vacancy rising to 5.0% and rental yields softening as tenants gain leverage.
KEY RISKS
- Flood risk: HIGH (planning_overlay) — order a flood certificate for the specific address before commit
- - Distance from CBD may limit long-term capital growth potential
