Geelong Rental Market Update July 2020
Our region’s rental prices are again healthy and stable. 2 bedroom houses and units are sitting at the same median rent as last month whilst 3 bedroom houses have increased by $3 and now sit at $383 per week.

It’s almost impossible to not mention the pandemic with lock-down in Melbourne, however, the latest REIV data does tell a tale of two cities. Let’s start with the vacancy rate. Inner Melbourne has increased to 3.2% with the Melbourne region as a whole sitting at 3.0%. Geelong on the other hand, has actually dropped to 2.3% – pre-COVID our vacancy rate was 2.2%, so Geelong is proving to be VERY different to Melbourne.

Our region’s rental prices are again healthy and stable. 2 bedroom houses and units are sitting at the same median rent as last month ($330pw) whilst 3 bedroom houses have increased by $3 and now sit at $383 per week.

With the rental market strong and business-as-usual in our office, we’re actively looking for more landlords to join us, so if you or someone you know has a rental property, please let us know.
