Well it may be a sign of a correction, but this is the third month in a row where Geelong’s vacancy rate has increased where it is now 1.4%. And as usual, Melbourne’s vacancy rate has opposed ours where it has fallen for the third month in a row to 8.0% in Inner Melbourne and 6.3% in the Melbourne Total category.
Median rents haven’t changed much from last month.
2 bedroom units in Greater Geelong are sitting at their stable 4-month median of $340 per week. And 2 bedroom houses are at the same 3-month median of $340 too. The only change this month is 3 bedroom houses where the median rent has risen another $5 to $390pw.
Although the rent data in Geelong is stable and our vacancy rate has risen slightly, we are not worried about leasing properties. Even the snap-lockdown didn’t deter rental enquiries nor did it slow us down in leasing properties at our normal fast pace.
