Despite Perth’s residential property and rental markets recording their strongest performances in years, one segment that has so far been less active in Perth’s market’s recovery has been investors. However, data is signaling that this is starting to change, and investors are beginning to return to the market.

While this level of investment is still below what we would expect for a rental market with below one per cent vacanc ..read more

Perth’s climbing rents have been a hot topic in recent months. Since the end of the emergency rental moratorium in late March, REIWA has reported that Perth’s median rental price has increased to $420 a month at the end of May.
As a landlord, adjusting your rents can be a balancing act between meeting market conditions and retaining good tenants who value and care for your property.

For many investors, the first place they start looking for an investment property is their own backyard. On the surface, this strategy seems to make sense – investors are familiar with their local area and understand the demand drivers, they have real-world knowledge of the surrounding amenity, and they may feel comfortable being able to check on the property at a moment’s notice.
