Rents hit new record!

Rents hit new record! Do you have a property to let?

Asking rents hit new record and now a third higher than pre-pandemic says the research from Rightmove. National average asking rents outside London hit new record of £1,231 per calendar month (pcm) and average asking rents for new tenants are now over £300 (33%) more than pre-pandemic 2019. 

Are you making the most of your investment?

Homes are continuing to let at speed, with the current time to find a tenant at its quickest since last November despite a slight easing in the gap between demand and supply adds Rightmove. The average property available to rent is finding a tenant in 17 days while tenant demand is up by 3% compared to last year, however available properties to rent are up by 7%.

Landlords currently face multiple market challenges leading some to sell up, however they are determined to keep good tenants in their homes. A recent survey shows landlords are most concerned about government sentiment towards the industry (47%), rising taxation (41%) and increasing compliance requirements (33%). Reassuringly, the majority (57%) of landlords say tenants choose to stay in their properties for longer than 24 months.
