Chief Executive Officer,\u00a0Tim McKibbin\u00a0noted the Omicron Coronavirus variant was affecting the industry in a variety of ways, with the rental market stalling, a host of legal issues to wade through, and staffing now becoming an issue.<\/p>\n<p>Mr McKibbin said on the market side of things, the New South Wales rental market had stalled, with the REINSW Vacancy Rate Survey results for December 2021 indicating residential rental vacancies have remained low across most of New South Wales.<\/p>\n<ul class=\"widgets-list-layout no-grav\">\n<li><a class=\"bump-view\" title=\"OnlyFans
