Bentley

Bentley, situated just 7 kilometers from the CBD, offers investors a robust workhorse opportunity underpinned by its critical proximity to Curtin University, driving consistent tenant demand. This results in a strong 0.8% vacancy rate, reflecting the suburb's tight rental market and solid 11.5% annual price growth, making it an attractive prospect for reliable returns. The market has started re-rating this location — 12-month growth of +11.5% puts it ahead of the broader Western Australia median.
