🌟 CLIENT TESTIMONIAL 🌟

"We have been lucky to work with Anna Matthews and Amy McGregor at Bayleys on the tenancy of our first student flat. They made the process very easy, with clear communication and showed genuine care and interest towards any questions or concerns we had. Anna was approachable, very reliable and quick at getting back to us, which was greatly appreciated. They communicated clearly whenever inspections or open homes were happening. Overall, a really positive experience and I would gladly recommend these ladies to anyone looking for a property manager."

The rental market is beginning to reset nationally, with increased supply and lower migration easing pressure on rents after a period of strong growth.

For Canterbury tenants and landlords, this means more balanced conditions, greater choice, and a shift back toward sustainable rental levels relative to incomes. It’s a changing landscape where informed advice is key.

Happy Chinese Lunar New Year!

2026 is the year of the horse, the seventh animal in the zodiac order and a symbol of energy, independence, momentum and adventure. It is characterised as a time for taking risks, embracing adventure, and pursuing passions, often favouring speedy results over steady, slow progress.

Rental activity has lifted across the country, and Canterbury is seeing the benefits of increased supply and tenant choice.

While national rents softened slightly to a median of $595 per week in the December quarter, bond numbers jumped 15.1% year-on-year – a clear sign of strong movement in the rental market and more properties becoming available.

For local landlords and tenants, that means a more active market with greater opportunity on both sides.

While national rents remained steady, Canterbury continues to offer good value, with a median weekly rent of $580 — still well below many other regions. With strong interest heading into summer, it’s a sign of a healthy, stable rental market and growing confidence across the region.
