Most agencies will only advertise their vacancy rates when it comes to their rental performance. Knowing an agencies vacancy rate is good, but only tells a little about the business – what most agencies fail to report is their average days on market.
This tells you how long it takes an agent to lease a property – from the point of listing the property to the point where a tenancy application has been approved and tenancy agreement signed and executed.
Since 1st Jan 2017 to present, the average days on market, for a residential rental property on the Northern Beaches been 29.5 days, whilst Property North Agency’s average has been 13.2 days. That’s a difference of 45% or more than 2 weeks rent!
