Just a little update on the areas which I follow on realestate.com.au Once again, more properties on the market which are tenanted today. I have never seen this before, Many R20-R40 zoned blocks with an older home on, even some corner blocks. These were normally very tightly held. Holding costs and the extreme costs of building new units, makes them a very risky investment now. Result=less homes for tenants. I can assure you that investors are not buying these properties. Can tenants afford to buy? Perhaps a few. But as posted on here yesterday, atm it is far cheaper to rent than to buy. If all the other costs which are paid by the landlord are taken into a/c. Rates, water rates, insurance, repairs. Perhaps some FHB can buy, but I think they should wait as I believe in Perth anyway, that prices will fall. Also rents will increase. Watching with interest.

Yeah it’s the gullible eastern states investors buying in Perth.. they didn’t learn after the last mining crash that took investors 5 years to break even.
