With the right approach, you can still secure a better deal, even if your credit report isn’t perfect....

Australia's student accommodation market is expected to stay resilient despite the Federal Government’s plan to limit international student enrolments to 270,000 next year.

Although the proposed cap is a slight decrease from 2024 figures, it’s still above pre-pandemic levels....

Australia’s rental market boom appears to be nearing its end, with CoreLogic’s national rental index flatlining over the past two months after a steep 39% rise between August 2020 and June 2024. CoreLogic notes that this slowdown reflects the weakest rental conditions since the early stages of the pandemic. While annual rental growth reached 9.7% in late 2021, the pace has since slowed to 7.2%, with unit rents particularly affected....
