The draw is low crime risk; the watch-out is weak affordability (mortgage ≈34% of local income · stretched).
A balanced profile — match it against the dimensions you weight most.

What could go wrong
Prices eased 7.5% over the year. (thin market — too few sales to be reliable)
Tight rental market — landlords have the upper hand.
New approvals are running below local demand — a supply gap that supports prices and rents.
Population growth is the clearest leading indicator of housing demand. Bellbrae grew +45% between 2015 and 2025, and is projected +31% more by 2036.
A comparative guide, not a household-level stress rate.
The report goes the next mile — your numbers run on the Bellbrae median, tuned to your goal, in one document to take to inspections.
Strong fundamentals for a balanced focus — 59/100.
Our verdict
