Rental yield in Sydney's established suburbs tends to run below the broader market because capital growth expectations are already priced into sale prices. If Doonside shows a gross yield meaningfully above 4%, it is worth checking whether that reflects genuine demand or a subdued sale price (which can itself be a signal of weaker capital growth prospects). Strong yield and strong capital growth in the same suburb is uncommon but does occur in transition areas.
