Hmmm. Sounds fishy. Surely it’s been rigged??
My initial reply to this got lost in the great Flat Chat Crash of Friday August 9th so here goes again.
Not rigged but is it scientific? No more or less than any other informal polls, given that the majority of polls should carry the disclaimer “according to the kind of people who respond to polls …”
I have been told that these figures were collated from responses by people registered to domain.com.au plus those who took part in an online survey.
So in answer to the question, how scientific is it, you’d have to say “not very. But how significant is another matter. What we can reasonably assert is that a lot more tenants seem to be happy with their landlords than you might think. And that, really, is as much as you can take from this – it’s just nice to have something positive to report about rentals, for a change.
