Applecross

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

Applecross presents a strong workhorse investment opportunity, distinguished by its prime 9km proximity to the CBD and persistently low supply levels that fuel robust demand. This high-value market delivers significant capital appreciation, evidenced by 17.5% growth over the past year, underpinned by an extremely tight tenant market with a 0.8% vacancy rate and strong weekly rents. The market has started re-rating this location — 12-month growth of +17.5% puts it ahead of the broader Western Australia median. Constrained supply means downward price pressure is structurally limited.
