The Victoria Opportunity Index

Where the numbers line up for buyers, investors and developers across the whole of Victoria — government sold-price medians joined with rental bond medians and GoSiteHunt's registered developer buy-box demand. Every input is a government record or a live platform signal — no survey, no opinion. Suburb-level. Sale medians are the Valuer-General's quarterly series, published several months in arrears.

How the index works.

Each area needs at least 12 house sales in the period and a rental bond median to qualify. The score weighs gross rental yield (weekly bond median × 52 ÷ sale median), year-on-year median movement (capped, and ignored on thin samples), active developer buy-box demand on GoSiteHunt, and sales depth. A screening index of public data — a place to start looking, not advice on what to buy.

Deep-dive the top-ranked areas.
