A family suburb on Perth’s southern growth corridor, 46km south of the CBD with the Kwinana Freeway at its door.
Baldivis (postcode 6171) sits about 46 kilometres south of the Perth CBD in the City of Rockingham. It is one of Perth’s big family suburbs, home to 37,697 people at the 2021 census, built out estate by estate since the 1990s alongside the Kwinana Freeway.
Baldivis ticked the fundamentals we screen every purchase against: families who move in and stay, freeway access to Perth and Bunbury, 13 schools including three secondary colleges, and a growing retail heart anchored by Stockland Baldivis. It is the kind of place where tenants become long-term residents.
A Meridian client secured a Baldivis house in the Parkland Heights estate in June 2021 for $505,000. In December 2025, a comparable house in Baldivis, 6 Delaware Road, sold for $920,000 (domain.com.au, 31 December 2025). On comparable-sales analysis, that puts our client’s property up approximately $415,000 (82.2%) in four and a half years, while current rent of $670 per week represents a 6.90% gross yield on the original purchase price: growth and cash flow from the same asset.
“Growth and cash flow from the same asset. The property that grew $415,000 also collects $34,840 a year in rent. This is the outcome the strategy is designed for, not one or the other.”

Thirteen schools, including Baldivis Secondary College, Ridge View Secondary College and Mother Teresa Catholic College, keep families anchored.
The Kwinana Freeway runs through Baldivis, linking it north to Perth and south to Bunbury.
Stockland Baldivis opened in 2007 and expanded in 2015, followed by Baldivis Square in 2017 and Stargate Baldivis in 2024.
Secured at $505,000 in 2021, it now rents at $670 per week: a 6.90% gross yield on the purchase price.
“The thought of buying an investment property seemed so overwhelming and confusing, until we were introduced to Adam and the Meridian team. They were extremely professional and transparent, allowing us to move forward with confidence. So grateful for their help and expertise.”
