Greater Brisbane’s rental market is slowly changing to favour landlords, with rents rising and yields improving, according to new data from Domain.

The Domain 2019 Rental report found that the extended period of heightened rental supply from 2012 for roughly half a decade appears to be coming to an end.

Tenants will find the rental market is now entering new territory.

Not only will they start to find competition to secure a lease has increased, the choice of available rental stock will be narrowing.

Median weekly rents have already started to climb while the vacancy rate slides.

This turnaround follows almost four years of stagnant rents.

Domain said landlords may start to hike rents as advertised stock dwindles.

For the March quarter, available rentals are at a three-year low.
