Top 6 Reasons to Have Your Property Managed As Opposed to Self Managing It
There’s been a noticeable shift in Brisbane’s rental market in recent weeks, and this has had an impact on both landlords and tenants.
The rising cost of living and interest rates impacted tenants’ confidence, resulting in a decrease in the amount of rent they’re willing to pay weekly. However, vacancy rates remain low, and demand for rental properties remains high.
Impact of Cost of Living and Interest Rate Rises on Tenant Confidence
The cost of living and interest rate rises have impacted tenants’ confidence in the rental market. With the current economic climate, tenants are more cautious about their expenses, including their rent. This trend has resulted in a decrease in the amount of rent tenants are willing to pay weekly.
Low Vacancy Rates and Increased Cost of Living
Despite the decrease in tenants’ willingness to pay more rent, the vacancy rates in Queensland remain low. With low supply and high demand, the cost of living in the rental market has increased.
