Windsor

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

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

Windsor's strategic inner-city location, just 5km from the Melbourne CBD, underpins exceptionally strong tenant demand, evidenced by a very low 1.2% vacancy rate. Coupled with inherently low supply, this consistent demand has driven 7.5% capital appreciation over the last twelve months, ensuring continued value growth for investors despite a modest 3.2% gross yield. Depth of owner-occupier demand creates a reliable price floor through cycle downturns.
