Tightly-held southern-tip lifestyle pocket with the peninsula's highest recent growth (27.9%), around-average crime (notably low car theft), a 40% rental base and 18:1 room demand — and it sits ~2 min from Redcliffe town centre and the hospital.
Yield is ~3.0% at a $1.1m median with soft rent growth (6.6%), so cash flow needs top-ups; the very thin sales market (99/yr) and old beach-cottage stock (median age 53) dock consistency and add upkeep the LRBA can't fund.
Storm-tide/SLR foreshore exposure is the un-renovatable risk, and for a small suburb the unit pipeline is meaningful — a proposed 93-unit tower plus Tydal townhome/apartment stages add competing rental stock.
A scarcity-and-lifestyle hold for a growth-tilted SMSF that can carry thin cash flow and buys newer stock on a dry street — the price momentum is real but volatile on tiny volumes. Rothwell offers a cleaner, rail-served alternative at a lower entry.
| Dimension | Verdict | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Capital growth | ✓ Good | 14.9% compound over 5 yrs, 27.9% last 12m. Past growth is already in the price — sustaining it depends on the supply picture below. trend data (this DB) |
| Rental yield | ✗ Bad | 3.0% gross — heavy negative cash flow inside the fund — the growth has to justify it. PropTrack via suburb page |
| Flood risk | ◐ Mixed | Storm-tide/SLR grouping only, no discrete event record; storm-tide/erosion overlays trigger development assessment along the foreshore. Resolve at address level via MBRC Flood Check. MBRC storm-tide overlay (Woody Point UNCERTAIN) |
| Crime | ✓ Good | Break-ins 975 (~0%), MV theft 591 (−49%, notably low), violent 3,552 (+3.9%) — around the QLD average with low vehicle theft. OpenStats 2022–24 |
| Infrastructure | ✓ Good | Woody Point jetty/foreshore + Bee Gees Way; ~2 min to Redcliffe town centre and Redcliffe Hospital. editorial; Metro North |
| Owner-occupier appeal | ◐ Mixed | 59% owned / 40% rented, 56% family households — balanced: resale depth plus a proven tenant pool. ABS via suburb page |
| New supply risk | ◐ Mixed | Small suburb with a meaningful unit pipeline — a proposed 93-unit, 9-storey Alfred St tower plus Tydal Sands/Oceana townhome+apartment stages. redcliffetoday.com.au 2024–25 |
| Distance to rail | ◐ Mixed | No station; Kippa-Ring/Clontarf ~7–10 min drive from the southern tip. Translink |
| Housing stock & upkeep | ◐ Mixed | Old beach-cottage stock (median age 53) alongside new units — house stock leans old, a repair drag under an LRBA. editorial — stock-age judgment |
