Rental demand reaches all time high

The National Residential Landlords Association has reported from a recent survey of Landlords that 57% confirmed a rise in demand for homes to rent during the first quarter of 2021 

Landlords operating in the South West reported the strongest demand with 79% saying demand had increased in the third quarter of the year, followed by 74% in the South East and 73% in Wales. 

Ben Beadle of NRLA has been quoted as saying: 

"As demand picks up following the lockdown measures we need a stimulus to support responsible landlords to provide the homes to rent we vitally need. Without this it will ultimately be tenants that suffer as a result of less choice, higher rents and the resulting difficulties they will encounter when looking to become home owners".
