Glen Iris

FairSquare analyses every Australian suburb for property investors — score, yield, risk and a full investment verdict.

FairSquare's model rates Glen Iris, Victoria 6.4 out of 10 (Workhorse Investment) as of May 2026.

Glen Iris offers a robust "workhorse" investment profile, underpinned by consistently strong demand and low supply within 10 kilometers of the CBD. An exceptionally tight vacancy rate of 1.2% ensures stable rental income and reflects its enduring appeal to high-quality tenants, driving long-term capital appreciation despite a modest gross yield. Constrained supply means downward price pressure is structurally limited.
