The honest read

What I'd tell you over a coffee

Langwarrin houses have grown 5.79% a year over ten years and 7.13% in the last twelve months, at a typical price of $995,896.

Still under seven figures and accelerating. That combination is rare in Melbourne right now.

The units did even better, 6.15% a year over the decade at $686,187. When the unit market outperforms the house market over ten years it usually means the whole area has been re rated, not just one slice of it.

410 house sales a year across about 10,084 dwellings, which is healthy turnover for a suburb this size. You can get in, and you can get out.

Vacancy is 1.79% and rent has grown 5.50% a year over the decade, one of the better rent numbers on this list. The rental side and the capital side have both worked, which is not common.

It is Frankston council, about 45 minutes from the city outside peak, and it has none of the postcode prestige of anything else on this page. That is exactly why it stayed affordable enough to grow.

Who Langwarrin suits

First home buyers who want a house on land under a million, and investors who care what the number does rather than how the suburb sounds at a barbecue. It is close to the trade I made on my own first place.

What I'd watch

It has already run. 7.13% in twelve months on top of a decade at 5.79% means you are not early. Buy the right property here rather than assuming the suburb average will carry a poor one.

How the process runs

Fair questions

Buying in Langwarrin, answered

Where is Langwarrin?

Frankston council, on the way to the Mornington Peninsula, about 45 minutes from the CBD outside peak. The full area write up is in the Frankston council report.

Is it too late to buy in Langwarrin?

Later than it was. A decade at 5.79% and a year at 7.13% means the easy money has been made. What is still true is that it is under a million with a 3.29% yield and a 1.79% vacancy rate, and there are not many Melbourne suburbs where all three of those are true at once.

Houses or units here?

The units have actually done better, 6.15% a year against 5.79%. That is unusual enough to be worth a proper look rather than defaulting to a house.
