Anecdotally ( I ( or my wife ) talked to most PM's in rocky before buying ) there are minimal if any vacancies in the rent range 140-200/ Week
Below that ( for houses ) the tenants are more problematic, and some applications fall through (because the applicants have poor rental histories ) so you are more likely to have a longer vacancy.
Above 200/ week there is some resistence to the rents.
When I was there , and looked at the places that were for rent , there were minimal available in the 140-200 range. The ones we have bought ( with one exception ) are in this range, and the ones that were vacant when we settled were tenanted within 2 days. ( two had tenants lined up prior to settlement ).
There are some pretty grotty house in parts of Rocky that would be vacant for a longer periods.
Vacancy rates are lower for houses than units.
