38 Devitt Avenue, Payneham South SA 5070

Payneham South’s demand is underpinned by extremely tight supply (around 0.5 months of stock) and an advantaged socio-economic profile, which keeps higher-income locals and city professionals locked into the market and keeps turnover low. Buyers – largely equity-rich households and downsizers – are willing to trade yield for the security of a premium block, with median house values north of $1.4 million and units above $530,000 supporting a capital-growth story. Affordability and sub-3% rental yields do expose the suburb to interest-rate sensitivity, but the ongoing supply squeeze and Adelaide’s recent quarterly jump (about $50k lift by December 2025) mean the last six months have still seen upward price momentum and room for selective growth.
