Western Australia
Good to Know
City Of Vincent is a high-value house market in the City Of Vincent area, currently positioned as a long-hold capital growth submarket. Located immediately north of Perth CBD, it is home to roughly 36,537 adults across 13,098 dwellings and currently records a vacancy rate of 0.75%.
According to HtAG Analytics, City Of Vincent is exhibiting tight-demand, low-supply behaviour. Stock on Market sits at 0.26% and Inventory at 2.42 months — a touch below the ~3-month balanced-market threshold — driving +15.1% YoY price growth and +8.8% YoY rent growth.
What the market data is signalling
Strong annual price growth of 15.1% versus rent growth of 8.8%, combined with an indicative gross yield of 2.67%, points to a market skewed toward capital appreciation rather than yield. Low listing pressure — a 0.26% Stock on Market and an opportune 0.75% vacancy rate — supports continuing price momentum, though stretched affordability (see below) may constrain some buyer segments. For a visual of relative momentum across metros, see the Markets in the Moment (MiM™) heatmap.
Who lives in City Of Vincent — and why it matters for investors
City Of Vincent sits at the top of the socioeconomic ladder with an IRSAD decile of 10, which typically supports lower volatility and stronger long-run capital growth. The renter/owner split is neutral at 36% renters, suggesting a mix of investment and owner-occupier demand; that balance influences turnover and rental stability. Read the IRSAD Crossover study for how affluence shifts can affect growth profiles.
Why City Of Vincent is a screening layer, not a final answer
Council-level averages can mask sharp differences between streets and pockets. City Of Vincent's headline metrics — a typical house price of $1,829,838, a gross yield of 2.67%, Stock on Market at 0.26%, Inventory of 2.42 months and median days on market of 42 — are useful screening signals, but you should assess suburb- and street-level supply, building stock and amenity before committing.

What's behind the RCS™ score of 61
HtAG's RCS™ (Rating Composite Score) bundles three independent dimensions — risk minimisation, capital-growth potential and cashflow resilience — into one score to help match markets to investor strategy. A score of 61 signals above-average composite prospects driven by strong price momentum but moderated by low yields and stretched affordability; drilling into the sub-scores helps align strategy to outcome. See how the RCS™ is built. To explore this market in your workspace, open City Of Vincent in HtAG Copilot.
Forward signals to watch
The vacancy rate — currently 0.75%: sustained sub-1% vacancy typically keeps rental growth strong and puts upward pressure on capital values as investors chase secure tenancies.
The building approvals ratio — currently 1.32%: this neutral approvals reading suggests moderate new supply; a sustained rise would soften listing tightness, while a fall would tighten an already low Stock on Market.
The Perth cycle phase: a city-wide shift from expansion to slowing growth would likely cool local momentum in City Of Vincent, while continued metro strength would reinforce the area's capital-growth trajectory.

Area Risks
Property data alone won't flag the structural risks that can erode a long-hold position. Bushfire overlays, flood-zone exposure, and economic concentration sit outside the price feed but determine whether your capital is insurable, defensible, and structurally protected. Unlock to see.
Are there hidden structural risks shaping City Of Vincent's long-hold story?
Beyond the headline price, City Of Vincent carries risk signals a median can't show — hazard exposure from bushfire and flood overlays, and how narrowly local employment leans on a handful of sectors (the concentration the EDI score quantifies). Together these separate insurable, defensible long-holds from those carrying tail-risk that never surfaces in the headline number.

Supply & Demand
City Of Vincent's headline numbers show where the market is today. The two cards below answer where it's heading. Direction is what separates a buy from a wait.
Is housing supply tightening or building up?
Stock on Market is one number — the trend is what matters. SoM, inventory, building approvals and hold period together reveal whether the market is starving for stock (price pressure up) or quietly building a pipeline (pressure down).

Is buyer and renter demand heating up or cooling off?
Vacancy is one signal — the real question is whether demand is still building or quietly peaking. Days on market, vacancy, search index and clearance rate are the four pulse-points — when they diverge, they signal a turning point.

Fundamentals
City Of Vincent can look solid on the surface — but the three layers below separate markets that genuinely hold value from ones that only look like they do.
Is City Of Vincent genuinely stable - or just expensive?
IRSAD hints at affluence, but socio-economic strength alone doesn't guarantee resilience. Combined with the renter-to-owner balance and unit-to-house ratio, you get the three signals that separate a tightly-held submarket from one carrying hidden volatility.
