Perth’s rental market is tightening again, with the number of properties available for lease falling below 2,000 for the first time since March. Just 1,914 rentals were listed on reiwa.com at the end of September, down 5.7% from August and 8.8% from a year earlier. REIWA says investor selling, reduced investor purchasing and delays in the new-build market are all adding to concerns about future supply, particularly at a time when demand remains strong and properties are leasing in a median of just 14 days.

On Tuesday, the RBA announced that it has lifted the cash rate by another 0.25 percentage points to 4.6%, the fourth increase this year, as it continues its efforts to bring inflation back under control.

Housing affordability in WA has fallen to its lowest level on record, with the latest Real Estate Institute of Australia figures showing that 47.5 per cent of the average family income is now needed to meet mortgage repayments. Rising property prices and three interest rate increases this year have both played a part, while rental affordability has also slipped, with a quarter of family income now required to meet median rent payments.
