Bond-lodgement medians from the SA Rental Bond Data — Private Rental Report, data.sa.gov.au (CC-BY, SA Housing Trust), 1 January - 31 March 2026. "Low sample" = the count is masked or small at source; treat those medians with care.

What the data suggests for developers.

Gross yield around 3.8% is thin — projects in Salisbury East lean on end values, not rent. Sell-down schemes (subdivide-and-sell, build-and-sell) fit the profile better than holds financed on rental income. The median moved +19% year-on-year on 34 sales — momentum is real, but never pay for it twice: if the asking price already banks the growth, the residual land value has to be run on today's evidence, not the trend line. Salisbury East qualifies for the Adelaide Opportunity Index at #12 of 50 — mid-table on the yield-led score, so neither the rent side nor the momentum story dominates here. All of the above is area-level screening, not advice: a specific parcel lives or dies on zoning, overlays, frontage, and the end value of what it can actually carry.

Granularity & method.

Suburb-level data. Rents are quarterly bond-lodgement medians from the SA Private Rental Report; sale medians are the data.sa.gov.au metropolitan median house sales series (country suburbs may show rents only). Indicative gross yield = headline weekly bond median × 52 ÷ sale median — a screening ratio, not a valuation input.

Sources: SA Private Rental Report bond data, SA Housing Trust via data.sa.gov.au (CC-BY) · data.sa.gov.au Metropolitan Median House Sales (CC-BY 4.0) · Indicative screening data — not financial, investment, valuation or planning advice. Area medians can move sharply between periods, especially on thin samples. © Madison Jade Pty Ltd.
