    So, if it’s true that investors are selling
    Yes it's true they're bailing because the return before tax is well below 3% and it's one of the worst investments right now, especilly if you take risk into account

    but it’s also true that first home buyers aren’t buying
    No-one has suggested that

    then, who is buying?
    FHB, baby boomers, those trading down, those on the move for whatever reason and migrants

    And if existing home owners are buying, then who is buying their property they are moving from?
    see above answer

    Or are they becoming landlords?
    Why would any sane person become a landlord of they're getting a risky return of less that 3%

    I ask you because you may know.
    He'll be thrilled you have asked
