Landlord? Here is some useful data from Rightmove

Thomas Neale our Director thought it would be useful to share with you the latest rental values data produced by the property portal, Rightmove. The headlines in the report are rising rents and slightly improved but still a low supply of available properties. If you would like to check out your current investment then speak to Amos Estates.

Rents rise again to new record


National average asking rents outside London reach a new record of £1,190 per calendar month (pcm):

Average asking rents outside of London for new tenants have now risen for 13 consecutive quarters

However, the pace of rent growth continues to slow and has now eased for three quarters in a row

Average asking rents in London surpass £2,500 for the first time to reach new record


Supply is still very constrained, however it is showing slow signs of improvement this year:

The number of available properties to rent is currently 6% higher than last year, and across the first three months of the year has improved by 8% compared with the same period last year

However, the number of available properties to rent is still 46% below 2019’s level


The gap between supply and demand has narrowed slightly compared to last year, however it is still near record levels with the number of tenants enquiring greatly outweighing the homes available to rent:

Competition between tenants has eased by 2% compared with last year, but it is still more than double (+173%) the 2019 level

Tenant demand is 4% higher than this time last year, and 48% higher than 2019

A proactive approach today means peace of mind tomorrow, stay compliant with professional advice.

Recent legislation changes like Awaab’s Law have made it clear that landlords must take responsibility for ensuring rental properties are safe, well-maintained, and free from hazards such as damp and mould. Failing to meet these legal requirements can now lead to serious consequences. If you don't currently use a property manager, think again.
