Where it sits.
A closer look.
Dual occupancy in Drouin generating $1,050 per week across two independent income streams. Positioned in a fast-growing regional town (6.67% annual capital growth) with strong rental yields and a demographic skew towards young families. Infrastructure investment, including the planned West Gippsland Hospital, underpins sustained demand.
Key highlights
- β$54,600 annual income from house and unit tenancies
- βTwo separate income streams insulate against single-tenant vacancy
- β4.16% house yield and 5.17% unit yield outpace regional Victorian average
- βV/Line rail to Melbourne in 90 minutes, 42-day average market time
Why this investment works
Dual income reduces tenant concentration risk
Two independent long-term leases ($630 and $420 per week) mean you're not exposed to a single vacancy. If one tenant churns, the other covers fixed costs while you remarket.
Drouin's demographics favour landlords fundamentally
73% family households, median age 38, high owner-occupier intent (75.8%) indicates stable, quality tenants. Young families priced out of Melbourne seek Drouin's affordability while maintaining commute access.
Hospital construction catalyses long-term capital growth
West Gippsland Hospital at Drouin East (planning phase, construction 2024-2028, patient move 2029) will anchor employment and population. Comparable regional markets show 8-12% growth around major health infrastructure.
Yields exceed most Victorian regional markets materially
Unit yield of 5.17% sits above the regional median and provides genuine cashflow. With median unit price around $460,000, this property offers income that services debt without forced negative gearing.
