Sydney rental yields fall in June: CoreLogic Quarterly Rental Review
Staff reporterAugust 24, 2020

The median Sydney rental yield has fallen sharply, according to the CoreLogic June 2020 quarterly rental review.

House yields in the NSW capital sit at 2.7% (down from 3.2% 12 months ago), and unit yields sit at 3.4% (down from 4.0% 12 months ago).

The current combined median yield (for all property types) is 2.9%, down from 3.5% 12 months ago.

This reflects a downturn of 0.8% month-on-month and 1.3% over the quarter.

For renters, this translates to a median rental price of $568 ($609 for houses and $536 for units).

In the 12 months to June, rental yields fell across seven of the eight capital city markets. Perth was the only exception.
