S2.E40 - What's happening with rents?

Send us a question/idea/opinion direct via text message!Rental price data is one of the most highly anticipated data releases these days with so much focus on landlords and their costs but interpretation of the data is unfortunately not straight forward. Nick and Kelvin do their best to evaluate where things are at, but all should be clearer in the next few months.The guys also review the latest REINZ sales volumes and house price index data, which leads to reference of an explainer article published on stuff over the weekend about all the different companies and measures out there, evaluating the property market.There's also the usual agent appraisal data to review and Kelvin provides his regular economic data update, including GDP figures for Q2 and surprisingly positive business confidence results.The monthly market update video is now live and Kelvin's latest article analysing the CoreLogic Buyer Classification series is also up on the website.Check out all our regular CoreLogic research insights at https://www.corelogic.co.nz/research-news and get in touch on LinkedIn, twitter @NickGoodall_CL or @KDavidson_CL or send us an email on nick.goodall@corelogic.co.nz or kelvin.davidson@corelogic.co.nz Sign up for news and insights or contact on LinkedIn, X @NickGoodall_CL or @KDavidson_CL and email nick.goodall@cotality.com or kelvin.davidson@cotality.com
