3.1.6     Rental Stock - Bonds held by RTA 2011-2016
In the June Quarter 2016, the Residential Tenancies Authority (RTA) held a total of 4,378 rental
bonds in Noosa Shire (Figure 13). Around 1,450 of these dwellings were located in Noosa Heads
and Southern Coast (33%), 1,190 were located in Tewantin and Northern Coast (27%) and 1,010
were located in Munna Pt and Noosaville (23%). There were small proportions in the Hinterland,
with the highest of these in Cooroy and Surrounds. These areas are based on postcodes and
therefore do not align with other data in this report based on statistical boundaries defined by
the ABS. The areas are:

        Tewantin and Northern Coast (postcode 4565) includes Boreen Point, Cootharaba, Noosa
         North Shore Teewah and Tewantin;
        Munna Point and Noosaville (postcode 4566);
        Noosa Heads and Southern Coast (postcode 4567) includes Noosa Heads, Sunshine Beach,
         Sunrise Beach and Castaways Beach;
        Cooroy and Surrounds (postcode 4563) includes Black Mountain, Carters Ridge, Cooroy
         and Tinbeerwah.

Peregian Beach and Marcus Beach have been omitted from this data as they share the 4573
postcode with Coolum Beach and have therefore been added to the Sunshine Coast Council data
rather than Noosa Shire’s.

The number of total bonds held by the RTA had slowly increased to a peak of around 4,800
bonds in March 2013 (from 4,460 in March 2011), but have generally decreased slowly since that
time.
