If you`re trying to find a rental, then you`re not alone.
There were more Australians trying to find new homes between January and March than at any time of the year, Radio 9 reported. More and more tenants have been evicted from the suburbs by high-priced tenants, as there are so many house watchers that they are no longer able to enter.
"sometimes we see more than 50 people lining up for a property, which is really a challenge for families," said Kul Singh (Kul Singh), REA Group`s general manager for rent.
Courtney Hodgn (Courtney Hodgen) of Strathpine, a northern suburb of Brisbane, has a full-time job, but she has to spend nearly half of her salary on rent.
"the cost of living is rising, the rent has become so expensive that I don`t even drink milk," Hodgn told (Current Affair). The 27-year-old has been desperately looking for a cheaper rental. But the right house has never been found.
"I wish I could live closer to the city, but there is no choice. I live 45 minutes away from the city and the cost of transportation is about A $50 a week. " She said.
Singh suggested that online profiles could be created on platforms such as 1Form.com to apply for multiple properties-a move that would speed up the application process and relieve pressure. "the competition is very intense-20 to 30 applications are available for each property," he said.
"take a look at the neighboring suburbs or sister suburbs," Singh suggests. "they`re very close to where you want to live."
