6.8% house yield at $380k — strongly positive cashflow. Genuine regional hub with diversified economy: agriculture + mining services + retail + education. Not a single-employer town. Absent from all major investor media lists.
Proximity to Bowen Basin adds coal-cycle sensitivity despite diversification; population limited to 14k; verify vacancy at postcode level
6.8% yield at $380k = ~$25.7k rent vs ~$19.8k interest = $5,900 POSITIVE cashflow. NG completely irrelevant. New builds in Emerald estate developments retain unlimited NG. Diversified economy reduces single-cycle risk vs pure mining towns.
