Straight about the data
What this cannot tell you
- These are medians of the bonds or leases of newly let homes. They are not advertised rents, and not what sitting tenants pay.
- A median moves with the mix of homes let or sold: a change can be new apartments, or more large houses, and not the same homes costing more.
- Small areas rest on few bonds or sales. Where a publisher withholds a figure this page shows a gap, never zero, and small samples are marked.
- Homes Victoria reports neighbouring suburbs together as one suburb group: every figure here is for the whole group.
- Each state measures in its own way. Do not add, average or rank figures across states.
- Information, not financial or tenancy advice.

The 4 limits this file states
- Medians of NEW leases (bonds lodged) begun in the 12 months to the quarter - not advertised rents, and not what sitting tenants pay.
- A median moves with the mix of homes let: a suburb group's change can be new apartments or a different mix, not rents rising for the same homes.
- Suburb groups are Homes Victoria's, not single suburbs; rows flagged small_sample rest on fewer than 100 leases.
- Information, not financial or tenancy advice.
