Book The Private Rental Sector in Australia

Download or read book The Private Rental Sector in Australia written by Alan Morris and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-05-15 with total page 173 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the decline and growth of the private rental sector in Australia delving into the changing dynamics of landlord investment and tenant profile over the course of the twentieth century and into the present period. It explains why over one in four Australian households are now private renters and investigates the contemporary legal and regulatory frameworks governing the sector. The reform discourses in Australia and comparator countries, and debates around key concerns such as Australia’s advantageous tax treatment of investors in rental property and the power imbalance between tenants and landlords are highlighted. The book draws on rich data: 600 surveys and close to 100 in-depth interviews with tenants in high, medium and low rent areas in Sydney and Melbourne and regional New South Wales. The book provides in-depth insights into this large and expanding component of Australia’s housing market and shows how being a private renter shapes the everyday lives and wellbeing of people and households who rent their housing including short and long-term renters, those on low and higher incomes and older as well as younger people.

Download or read book Rental Housing written by Ira Gary Peppercorn and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2013-03-20 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The discussion of where people live and how people pay for their housing has undergone a significant shift. Until the mortgage crisis erupted in 2008, the housing policy of most nations focused on increasing home ownership. There had been very little discussion about rental housing, less about social housing, and virtually none about public housing. The mortgage crisis showed the challenges inherent in pushing for home ownership for all. With homes going into foreclosure and with credit tightening in many countries, the need for rental housing increased dramatically. However, most countries are only beginning to consider supporting rental housing as a shelter option. This book is an effort to bring rental housing to the forefront of the housing agenda and to provide general guidance to policy makers. The information it provides can assist key players in housing markets--government officials, private rental property owners, financiers, and nongovernmental organizations--in including rental housing as a critical housing option and in having an informed discussion on how best to stimulate this sector.

Book Competition Between Social and Private Rental Housing

Download or read book Competition Between Social and Private Rental Housing written by C. Lennartz and published by IOS Press. This book was released on 2013-01-21 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the context of shifting regulatory approaches and changing provision structures in many Western rental housing systems, the notion of competition between social and private rental housing has received increasing attention from practitioners and academic researchers. This thesis explores and theorises the concept of inter-tenure competition in order to advance understanding of what it means in local and national market realities, as well as in business and political practices. Results indicate that competition in mixed markets is a complex matter, much of which is explained by the distinctive properties of social and private rental services. Inter-tenure competition is shown to be the interplay of structural and political conditions, individual and organisational business goals, and the perceptions and strategic decisions of both providers and consumers. The results suggest that the degree of competition relates to specific points in time and is mainly a question of which rental market segment one is looking at.

Download or read book Navigating a Changing Private Rental Sector written by Sharon Parkinson and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study investigated how low-income renters navigate the private rental sector (PRS) via three core pathways: the formal (via traditional or mainstream real estate agent intermediaries), informal (direct to rooms and dwellings privately managed by landlords and sub-landlords) and supported pathways (via community housing agencies). It provides practitioners and policy makers with an evidence base on changing practices and ways forward in shaping equitable PRS institutions.

Book Private Rental Policies and Programs

Download or read book Private Rental Policies and Programs written by Steve Pomeroy and published by Cmhc. This book was released on 1999 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report examines the experience of 11 countries (including Canada) from Europe, Scandinavia, North America and the Pacific Rim in supporting a private rental sector as part of their national housing system. The purpose was to examine the extent to which other governments have developed policies and programs specifically to encourage the production of rehabilitation of the private rental stock. The main body of the report reviews the objectives of the research, develops a framework for the comparative assessment and looks at the rental market in the selected countries. It then outlines policy issues specific to the private rental sector since 1980 and how each country has responded, summarizing the major policy and program initiatives, which have been identified for each country, and assessing the relevance of this experience for Canada. An appendix provides a detailed profile of each country. It presents the general background on the relative importance of the private rental stock in each country's housing system, the regulatory and tax regimes that affect private rental housing, and the current policy issues related to the private rental sector. Detailed assessments of specific major policies and programs in each country are also included. Key findings of the report include: 1. In almost all countries, except in instances of pressing urgency, governments have adopted a "laissea-faire" approach with regard to encouraging and facilitating private rental housing. 2. Across all countries, the fundamental cause of the low level of investment in private rental production and rehabilitation is the lack of a cmpetitive return relative to other forms of investment, especially in light of the risks inherent in rental investment. 3. The only countries that appear to have maintained a healthy investment for private rental housing without direct subsidies are New Zealand and Australia. Notably, neither have rent controls and permit depreciation and deductibility of rental losses against other sources of income. 4. Variants of virtually all the policy and program initiatives used in other countries have been attempted in Canada over the last three decades. 5. The most critical rental issue facing most governments is not simply the lack of private rental housing production, but the problem that many low-income households do not have sufficient incomes to access rental housing at a cost they can afford.

Book Revisiting Rental Housing

Download or read book Revisiting Rental Housing written by Nicolas P. Retsinas and published by Brookings Institution Press. This book was released on 2008-07-01 with total page 382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Brookings Institution Press and Harvard University Joint Center for Housing Studies publication Rental housing is increasingly recognized as a vital housing option in the United States. Government policies and programs continue to grapple with problematic issues, however, including affordability, distressed urban neighborhoods, concentrated poverty, substandard housing stock, and the unmet needs of the disabled, the elderly, and the homeless. In R evisiting Rental Housing, leading housing researchers build upon decades of experience, research, and evaluation to inform our understanding of the nation's rental housing challenges and what can be done about them. It thoughtfully addresses not only present issues affecting rental housing, but also viable solutions. The first section reviews the contributing factors and primary problems generated by the operation of rental markets. In the second section, contributors dissect how policies and programs have—or have not—dealt with the primary challenges; what improvements—if any—have been gained; and the lessons learned in the process. The final section looks to potential new directions in housing policy, including integrating best practices from past lessons into existing programs, and new innovations for large-scale, long-term market and policy solutions that get to the root of rental housing challenges.
