While investors typically don ’ t target high yields , it can be useful to look at high yielding locations as they tend to be at cheaper price points . More negatively , they often don ’ t achieve price growth that tracks the average . Given the enormous change that has occurred in Tasmania over the past decade , it has been possible to achieve both high yields and high price growth in many suburbs and towns . As Hobart has become more expensive , yields have not surprisingly pushed down .
