This morning one of you asked for two towns. On our 16,000 searches video, a viewer commented Sale and Horsham, Victoria. I replied, I'm doing that video as we speak, hold tight. And by this afternoon, we'd run both through the entire Ripe House stack, every layer. Here's the number that made it worth it. On one street in Horsham, houses sell for $840,000. On another street, same town, same postcode. The median is $207,000, a four times difference in price depending purely on which street you buy. That's what this video is about, not just to sale a good town or Horsham a good town, but how the best property researchers in the country pull a place apart layer by layer until we know exactly which street and which house is worth your money and which one quietly bleeds it. So here's what full stack analysis actually means, because this is the part almost nobody does. Most people research a suburb and stop. We go four layers deep, layer one, the LGA, population, jobs, the economy underneath the town, layer two, the suburb. Our R score, which ranks every one of 15,286 suburbs in Australia, plus yield, vacancy and 10 year growth. Layer three, the street. We map every recent sale because the street can swing the price three to four times. And layer four, the individual property, our valuation against the asking price, the real cash flow, the value gap on the specific house. Most people stop at layer two. The money is made or lost in layers three and four. Let's start with sale. Before we dive in, the philosophy, property selection is a science, not a guess. Employment, projects, lifestyle and population push demand up. New supply caps it, subtract one from the other and what's left is opportunity. Sale and Horsham both clear that equation. In thin supply, compounding demand. Now let's prove it layer by layer. Sale sits in Gippsland, about 215 kilometres east of Melbourne, the main hub for the Wellington Shire. And the long term story here is genuinely strong. Look at the house median. Back in 2016, it was $320,000. Today, it's $622,000. That's a 94% rise over 10 years. The price has almost doubled. And it's not stale either, up 20% in just the last year. This is not a town that had one boom and went to sleep. It's been compounding steadily for a decade. Now layer two, the fundamentals. And this is where sale earns its place on that search list. On our R score, our zero to 100 rating that blends growth, yield and fundamentals, sale has averaged the 92nd percentile over the last 12 months. Top 8% of every suburb in the country. Rental vacancy sits at 2.3%. Tight gross yield on houses 4.3%. And it was number six on our national most searched list out of 16,000 searches. So the demand you saw in that first video, this is what's underneath it. Real fundamentals, not hype. But here's where it gets interesting. And this is the layer most buyers never reach. Because a suburb average hides everything that matters. This is every recent sale in sale, 644 of them. And we built this map ourselves from raw coordinates, no shortcuts. Green is expensive. Red is cheap. And look at it. The money isn't spread evenly. It clusters. There are pockets of green and pockets of red, sometimes just streets apart. If you buy on the suburb median and hope, you're gambling. If you know which pocket you're standing in, you're investing. So let's put actual street names on it. Here are those streets on the map. Stephen Street and Ralph Avenue, glowing green, the premium pocke
