Subiaco

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

FairSquare's model rates Subiaco, Western Australia 6.5 out of 10 (Workhorse Investment) as of May 2026.

Subiaco presents a compelling investment driven by its prime inner-city location, 4km from the CBD, underpinning high tenant demand and an exceptionally low 0.8% vacancy rate. This tight rental market, coupled with low supply, fueled 18.5% capital growth over the past twelve months, positioning it as a reliable asset for long-term appreciation. The market has started re-rating this location — 12-month growth of +18.5% puts it ahead of the broader Western Australia median. Constrained supply means downward price pressure is structurally limited.
