Can "build-to-rent" fix the housing shortage?

SQM Research reported that property listings declined in all capital cities in April 2025, led by -7 per cent declines in Sydney and Canberra.

There was probably a fair bit of disruption this month due to Easter, ANZAC weekend, and the Federal election. 


Listings will likely remain low until the spring selling season rolls around.

Asking prices rose +0.7 per cent over the month of April, driven by a large increase in Sydney.
