REA Group report shows median-income Australians could afford 37% of rentals in July–December 2025

REA reported rental affordability in Australia fell to its lowest level since at least 2008.
Rent price growth of 5% over the December quarter of 2025 was cited as offsetting income growth and worsening affordability.
Households earning the median income of AUD 124,000 could afford 37% of rentals advertised between July and December 2025.
New South Wales and South Australia were identified as the least affordable states, with typical-income households able to afford 25% and 19% of advertised rentals, respectively.
For lower-income households earning just under AUD 75,000, 2% of rentals advertised between July and December 2025 were assessed as affordable.
