The Daily Telegraph in Australia reports that “rents will jump due to a dramatic fall in the number of apartments built this financial year” (courtesy of BIS Shrapnel) and that because of the superannuation law that is due to change in the second half of this year, most properties are being bought by owner-occupiers.

(What is superannuation? Superannuation is a form of savings where money is set aside by you and/or your employer and invested for your retirement. It is generally an ideal way to invest money for your retirement. Many funds also pay benefits if you die, or if an illness or accident makes you unable to work. See Superannuation)

How does this affect Australia’s rental market in general? You can check out the following links to relevant news about the critical situation in Australia’s real estate today:
