Mr Wargent said trends created by the unprecedented border closures and restrictions maid the pandemic will only be \u201ctransitory\u201d and are just short-term noises.<\/p>\n \u201cInvestors seeking long-term capital growth and strengthening rental returns should focus on certain opportunities as rents get set to rise.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cWe look for boutique unit developments with reasonable strata levies, and if the budget permits, look for family-friendly units with owner-occupier appeal, in those popular suburbs where the supply is somewhat capped.\u201d<\/p>\n As international borders reopen, Mr Wargent said there could be a revitalization in the apartment markets, especially if rental supply remains tight.<\/p>\n \u201cReserve Bank of Australia research has previously shown that new migrants and arrivals to Australia tend to have only a limited impact on the housing turnover rate, because most new arrivals are renters initially, especially international students,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n \u201cThat means a lot more demand for rentals is coming in 2022. As the border reopens, many parts of Australia may experience chronically tight rental markets.\u201d<\/p>\n The looming rental shortage is driven by several factors, including the slowdown in the entry of investors from China that dampened the supply of new apartments, particularly the high-rise ones.<\/p>\n \u201cWe also have a very strong population pyramid in Australia which is driving a surge in household formation \u2014 a substantial number of young renters have entered the rental market, as the lockdowns encouraged more renters to find their own space at the earliest available opportunity,\u201d Mr Wargent said.<\/p>\n \u2014<\/p>\n Photo by @jamie_davies on Unsplash<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
