Williamstown

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

FairSquare's model rates Williamstown, Victoria 7.0 out of 10 (Steady Buy) as of May 2026.

Williamstown presents a strong investment case, being only 12km from the CBD, where critically low supply and high demand (8/10) underpin 9% annual price growth. This constrained market ensures a tight 1.2% vacancy rate, supporting premium weekly rents of $916 for its high-value properties. Constrained supply means downward price pressure is structurally limited. Depth of owner-occupier demand creates a reliable price floor through cycle downturns.
