5/96 Northumberland Road Auburn NSW 2144

First-floor brick unit | 6-unit boutique block | <800m to Auburn Station | 1970 build | Strong rental yield This property presents a competitively positioned entry into the Auburn market, distinguished by its smaller, full-brick complex of only six units—a rarity compared to typical larger apartment blocks. Its central location within walking distance of the station and shops creates immediate tenant appeal, while the two-bedroom format serves both investors seeking yield and owner-occupiers prioritizing convenience over modern finishes. The estimated gross rental yield is strong for the area. The primary decision rests on valuing an older unit against a premium asking price. The unit’s age implies higher potential maintenance costs within the strata, and its price sits above the estimated market value, demanding immediate negotiation to avoid overcapitalization. Proceed with an offer anchored to comparable sales, as the current listing requires justification.
