The future of rental affordability

The future of rental affordability

Over the last 25 years affordability of rental homes has been steadily eroding. Recent AHURI research found that more households with high incomes are renting – worsening the shortage of affordable private rental homes for very low income households. With this trend set to continue, what does this mean for rental policy in Australia?

Facilitator Dr Tom Alves, Head of Development at AHURI, discussed the findings of the research with research author, Margaret Reynolds of Swinburne University and Eliza Owen, Head of Research at CoreLogic to explore the changing nature of private rental, emerging market issues to watch, and possible solutions.

This webinar is for anyone developing policy affecting provision of private rental and rental standards, those looking to boost rental supply or offer new private rental models, and those who advocate on behalf of tenants accessing both private and social rental homes.
