By bedroom 3-bed $527k · 4-bed $638k
Soft rental market — higher vacancy, so weigh the income side carefully.
New approvals are running below local demand — a supply gap that supports prices and rents.

Cobblebank is an emerging growth-area suburb — its resident base is still small and filling in fast, so a percentage off that tiny base overstates the trend. Read it as a new area being built out, not a precise growth rate.
A comparative guide, not a household-level stress rate. For a new growth area, the local income is a thin Census sample — read it as indicative.
The report goes the next mile — your numbers run on the Cobblebank median, tuned to your goal, in one document to take to inspections.
