Will the ever-rising cost of rents push Kiwis overseas?

Description:

Rental prices in have skyrocketed over the last year.

These high rental prices are giving young Kiwis yet another incentive to take their skills elsewhere, sparking concerns that some might exhibit their discontent by dusting off their passports.

So how concerning are these rent rises? And how much worse could they become with the balance of power swinging further in favour of landlords under the new Government? 

On The Front Page today, Brad Olsen, the chief executive and principal economist at Infometrics, joins us to discuss why it’s no fun being a renter in New Zealand.
