Yannarie is a smaller community of 15 — 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.

The main risks are a thin buyer pool (15 residents), interest-rate sensitivity on the $4,000 median mortgage, below-median household incomes ($68,848 vs $99,736 state median), 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.
