Regans Ford is a smaller community of 25 — 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. Household income of $90,948/year is 9% below the Western Australia median of $99,736, typically translating into lower entry prices and a tenant base more sensitive to rent increases. Median rent of $360/week (~$1,560/month) covers only 60% of the median mortgage of $2,600/month — the remaining $1,040/month must be funded from other income, so this suburb tilts toward capital growth rather than yield. Regans Ford is 111 km from Perth, so the local market tracks regional employment and lifestyle drivers more than CBD-driven commuter demand. Only 62% of dwellings are separate houses (vs 79% state median), so this is a unit-heavy market where body-corporate decisions and strata supply meaningfully shape investor returns.

The most recent census recorded a median weekly rent of $360 in Regans Ford, equating to approximately $18,720/year in gross rental income (state median $350/week).

The median monthly mortgage repayment in Regans Ford is $2,600, or approximately $31,200/year (vs $1,902/month state median). Stress-test your own borrowing at rates 1–2 percentage points above today's to make sure you can still service the loan through an RBA tightening cycle.
A median weekly rent of $360 works out to $1,560/month, covering 60% of the median mortgage repayment of $2,600/month. That leaves a $1,040/month shortfall (around $12,480/year before tax benefits), so a typical owner-occupier-priced property here is negatively geared. Actual cash flow depends on your deposit, loan terms, ownership costs and marginal tax rate — run the full numbers in our rental yield calculator.
The main risks are a thin buyer pool (25 residents), interest-rate sensitivity on the $2,600 median mortgage, the broader Western Australia market cycle. Each of these is covered in the Risk Factors section above with suburb-specific numbers rather than generic warnings.
