“Trapped” tenants while the rents hit the maximum records

The northern beaches was followed, where units rents increased by 7.1 percent – $ 55 per week – to $ 825 per week.

The Central Coast also recorded the strongest growth of rentals for houses, growing 8.3 percent at $ 650 per week.

This was followed by more distant and convenient suburbs, including Parramatta (an increase of 7.1 percent) and from the outside south-west (up to 6.7 percent).

Powell said that high home rents and units on the central coast were probably due to the greater question as the tenants sought more convenient places outside the city, especially if they worked from home part of the week.

Powell said that the units’s rentals were overcoming the houses because accessibility was stretched.

“The units are overcoming the houses and the fact that every single Sa4 area has a record rental says a lot about the question, on the extended convenience and the pressure tenants are under”.

Dr. Peter Tulip, head of the economist of the center for Independent Studies, said that the lack of homes was a big problem for most of the society, denying some opportunities that parents had.

“I understandably angry for this. We could very well see that anger is reflected in the federal elections next month,” he said. “I think that housing building will be a big problem for some who will rented forever. It was difficult to buy a house in Sydney – It is now difficult to rent a house.”

Tulip said that a great majority of people was “trapped” at home with their parents.

“They understand Bitterly. The largest problem caused by these rents increasing is the rate of homeless. It is one of the ugliest characteristics of modern Australian cities.”

Renting Dylan Griffiths, 32, received an increase in $ 40 rent per week in January for his unit with a bedroom in Summer Hill-Quollosa who has reluctantly accepted.

“I have the bills that increase and my salary is not lengthening with the cost of basic life,” said the geography teacher of the high school, who had previously been elected in his local council as a representative of the Greens but is no longer a member of any political party.

Griffiths said that his rent represented almost 40 % of his salary.

“I had to give the budget at a new level in the last year,” he said. “Although it is a 10 % increase compared to my rent, I did not have a 10 % increase in wages. I thought that a professional work that required people to have more university diplomas would provide some form of economic stability.”

Griffiths said that he would probably have had to move more to the west and even taken into consideration the cities in motion.

“Is Sydney just a playground for the rich? Or is it a place where firefighters and teachers are able to live?” he asked.

Bernie Barrett’s acting chief executive officer said he hadn’t seen any change in the rental conditions.

“The rental excursions are still unexpectedly high,” he said. A survey of its organization last year of over 1400 people found nine out of 10 tenants paid more than 12 months ago and half of the rents increases was over 10 %.

Barrett asked Sydney rents prices to facilitate change or help to stabilize the market.

“The tenants were conditioned to accept a lower level of life. Those we talked about said that the action on rental problems is a key consideration for them in the next elections.”
