According to the latest research from Domain Group, the rental market in Sydney has remained quite tight. But while this may sound like bad news, it actually offers some relief following widespread investment concerns in 2014.
In the rental report for the December quarter of last year, Domain senior economist Andrew Wilson noted that recently, there had been concerns about the high level of investment in the Sydney market. This came in the form of the Australian Prudential Regulatory Authority writing to banks, warning them about the level of money that was being given out for investor loans. The concern was that lending would become more risky as the market edged towards a growth failure.
However, as Mr Wilson notes, the increase in rents across Sydney has seen a correction in this, stabilising the market somewhat.
Demand for rental homes in Sydney was bested only by Adelaide and Hobart this quarter, even though median rents rose to $520 per week for houses and $500 per week for units.
