2 Cook Cres, East Hills NSW 2213

East Hills is a compact Canterbury-Bankstown pocket of about 3,300 residents where families still predominate, listings stay scarce and middle-ring buyers chase bigger blocks plus the East Hills line and local schools, keeping inquiries ahead of stock. Houses now trade around $1.55–1.63 million with annual gains of about 9–11%, which implies the past six months have broadly held positive momentum rather than retreating while median weekly rents near $800 support both owner-occupiers and investors. Risks include household incomes lagging Metro Sydney and a very tight 0.49% vacancy rate that caps rental upside, yet the appetite for renovated or dual-living homes amid limited new supply keeps buyers circling East Hills.
