Notes and Definitions

• Average: This is the median price
• Dearer: One-quarter of properties rent for more than this price.

Properties are often let from January for 12 months, hence there is often an increase in rents at the beginning of the year.

The data shows market rents for non-government owned properties for which Tenancy Services holds information. Any category that has less than five bonds lodged has been excluded, to prevent individual properties being identified.
