Investment Signal

6.5% house yield at $300k = strongly positive cashflow. Near-zero vacancy. Budget policy upgrades this: CF positive means NG irrelevant, cheap entry suits inflation indexation CGT regime.

Risk / Warning

SINGLE EMPLOYER RISK — Nyrstar smelter financial position must be monitored. Maximum 5–10% of any portfolio. Population only 14k limits liquidity on exit.

Budget Policy Impact

6.5% yield at $300k = ~$19.5k rent vs ~$15.6k interest = $3,900 POSITIVE cashflow. Budget policy is highly favourable: no NG dependence, cheap entry suits inflation indexation CGT.
