Rental vacancies in South Eastern NSW significantly higher in October
The percentage of available rental properties increased 4.5% in October to stand at 5.3%.
“This is a significant increase in available rental vacancies,” said REINSW President Steve Martin.
“Investment in rental properties has improved over the later part of this year with lower interest rates and good rental income enticing investors into the market.
“This is a very good result, particularly when compared to other regional centres where vacancy rates have either fallen or remain steady,” said Mr Martin.
