Quellington is a smaller community of 22 — about 0% of the Western Australia suburb median (5,605) — so investors should factor in the narrower buyer pool and longer average time-on-market. Median household income of $117,000/year runs 17% above the Western Australia suburb median of $99,736, indicating strong purchasing power and the type of demographic profile that tends to sustain premium property prices through market cycles. The median weekly rent of $100 translates to approximately $5,200/year in gross rental income, setting the upper bound on yield before vacancy, rates, insurance and maintenance. Quellington is 93 km from Perth, so the local market tracks regional employment and lifestyle drivers more than CBD-driven commuter demand.

Limited buy-and-hold upside: a small population of 22 means liquidity is thin and capital growth tends to lag the wider Western Australia market over full cycles.
Gross rent of $100/week (~$5,200/year) sets the yield ceiling. Cross-check against your purchase price to confirm whether this suburb hits the 4–5% gross yield most Australian investors target.
With 77% houses in a 22-person market, renovation margins depend on individual street and aspect rather than any suburb-wide story — do comparable-sales analysis before committing capital.
