For an investor,
A read of Mortlake's fundamentals as they stand — not a price forecast. The scorecard below rates each factor so you can weigh the ones that matter to you.
The draw is fair growth (+26% / ~5 yrs) and strong yield (5.6% gross); the watch-out is elevated crime risk.
Growth is the draw — weigh the entry price against the upside, and pocket and street selection matter more than the suburb average.
