Real estate
2023
Less than 1% of housing is available for rent, which inflated prices. Thousands of people are being left homeless
In September 2023, renting in Australia becomes harder than ever as one of the world's most acute property shortages escalates by the day. At this time, less than 1% of housing is available for rent in the country, which is much less than even in hot markets such as Singapore.
As a result, rents are soaring to sky-high levels, exacerbating an already acute shortage of living funds and forcing thousands of Australians homeless. The crisis will only intensify.
