Up to 50,000 Chinese students are set to flood into Australia, sparking fears the study visa tidal wave will fuel soaring rental prices - with some students paying almost $14,000 a month for a unit.
Rents are about to soar, with most landlords putting prices up by 5 per cent within weeks, as 50,000 Chinese students rush to Australia after online study was banned.
Soaring rents and lack of options has become a very serious problem in the last 12 months. Nationally, rents rose 6.7 per cent to a median of $495 per week in 2022, but it s much worse in capital cities.
Australians are unable to pay bills, put food on the table and are even being forced onto the streets as the out-of-control rental crisis reaches a new level.
Complaining about a minor leak could lead to an unscrupulous landlord evicting tenants with very little notice by deeming the property uninhabitable , rather than fixing the problem.
