What the data suggests for developers.

A gross yield around 4.7% is middling: it neither rescues nor kills a development case in Warrnambool. End values and build cost will decide the feasibility, with rent as a secondary support. The median is broadly flat year-on-year (+1.1% on 159 sales) — flat tape rewards accurate buying, because there is no rising market to bail out an overpaid site. Warrnambool qualifies for the Victoria Opportunity Index at #23 of 50 — mid-table on the yield-led score, so neither the rent side nor the momentum story dominates here. Rental depth is genuine: 313 bonds behind the headline median means the rent figure is an observed market, not a handful of tenancies. 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 sale medians from the Valuer-General's quarterly series (published in arrears). Rents are Homes Victoria bond medians, published for grouped suburb areas — where shown, the rent row names the group. Indicative gross yield = headline weekly bond median × 52 ÷ sale median — a screening ratio, not a valuation input.

Area medians can move sharply between periods, especially on thin samples. © Madison Jade Pty Ltd.
