RENT CRISIS SURVEY FOR REAL ESTATE PROFESSIONALS

Everyone deserves a home, but the housing crisis is acute in NSW and the situation could be about to get much worse. No doubt you are already aware of proposals to change the rules for landlords, such as freezing rent, capping rent increases, removing landlords’ rights to refuse pets, abolishing no grounds termination notices and introducing portable bonds. These changes will further discourage investment in rental properties, and there will be even fewer homes available to rent, deepening the crisis. As an industry, we can’t just stand by and watch this happen.

PLEASE COMPLETE THIS QUICK SURVEY TO GIVE US THE FACTS TO LOBBY GOVERNMENT

3.If yes, how many?
4.How many of the rental properties sold were sold to owner-occupiers?
5.How many owner-occupied properties were sold to investors in the last 12 months?
