5 regions tipped to rise

While much of the focus remains on Sydney and Melbourne, which have seen a reduction in rent due to falling migration levels, Mr Paliwal’s research shows it’s not a national issue.

“A large part of Australia is actually facing a rental crisis. Vacancy rates, fast declining rental days on market, local property manager sentiment, rising rents, and reducing over 21-day listings are clear signs of this.”

Sa3 regions tipped to grow

Mr Paliwal said Australian property is seeing mixed results, with the biggest mistake an investor could make is believing the entire market is performing the same way.

Instead investors are being urged to get into the micro with their analysis, as it can reduce the risk of buying areas impacted by higher unemployment, unaffordable housing, migration and supply issues.

“Our analysis shows over 80 SA3 regions displaying lowering/low stock, tight vacancies, decreasing rental and price days on market, and in turn higher pressure on prices. This make-up of 80 SA3s is a touch over 600 suburbs across the country; 600 is no small number of opportunities when it comes to the number of markets to safely grow your wealth.”
