| The government housing sell-off in Millers Point has had the unintended consequence of turning the historical suburb into a growing Airbnb hotspot where asking rents can be as high as $4500 a week.
Many Millers Point properties bought over the past two years are now being marketed to tourists on online home-sharing websites, including a Kent Street terrace that sold in mid-2015 for more than $2 million. It is advertised for about $650 a night.
The most common location for these homes is Millers Point’s main arterial road – Kent Street – which locals have dubbed “Rent Street” because of the many new renters, both short- and long-term.
