A closer look
What the 2025 rental review found
231 SA3s
More than two-thirds of Australia's SA3 regions had vacancy rates below 1.0%, even as the national average rose from 0.8% to 1.0%.
5.45%
Average rental growth in regional NSW rose from 1.85% to 5.45% in just eight months, a strong recovery.
0.3%
Greater Hobart's vacancy rate fell to 0.3% in March 2025, near its 2022 record low. Darwin's fell 34% in a year to 0.9%.
Australia’s rental crisis has continued to ease in the past year: the national average vacancy rate has slightly increased from 0.8% to 1.0%. However, an eased crisis is still a crisis, and it is far from over.
