This research project investigates the marginal rental housing market, which includes rooming houses and various kinds of caravan park accommodation.

The project asks: What are the supply and demand trends in different geographical locations? What are the drivers of change in this market? And what are the housing policy implications? The research addresses these questions to provide a comprehensive analysis of the dynamics driving the use of various forms of marginal rental housing, culminating in a marginal rental typology.
