letting agents<\/a> and property investors.<\/p>\nQ4 2010<\/h1>\n
According to the recent rental index from leading property website Findaproperty.com, the increase in value of residential rental properties has resulted in a \u00a355 per month increase in rents outside London since January 2010.<\/p>\n
Data from their research reveals that the 6.8% rise in rents has placed the average rental value at \u00a3859 pcm in the final quarter of 2010.\u00a0 London saw the most dramatic increase with a 16.6% rise in rental prices, with the Capital\u2019s average rent rising by \u00a3274 per month, with properties fetching \u00a31,925pcm.<\/p>\n
Demand for available housing stock has lead to a 4.2 rise of further rental properties on the market in Q4 compared to Q3, but as rents in the social sector will rise to an 80% market value this year, experts expect many social sector tenants will join the ranks of the PRS, resulting in a severe shortage of rental properties.<\/p>\n
Nigel Lewis, the property analyst at Findaproperty.com, said:
\n“Market conditions are a perfect storm for buy-to-let landlords at the moment. Although property prices are coming down very slightly, first-time buyers are still finding it hard to get on the ladder and mortgages remain mostly unaffordable. Rental demand is still extremely strong.<\/p>\n
“It’s no wonder that more stock is coming on to the market – people with spare property see an opportunity to make a good return on their investment and are returning to the buy-to-let market in a way we haven’t seen since early 2009.<\/p>\n
“And while the increase in stock this quarter hasn’t slowed down the increase in rental prices, it will be interesting to see if this leads to weaker prices in 2011.”<\/p>\n
A report by ARLA (Association of Residential Letting Agents) on Q3 of 2010 also confirmed a rise in rents and an overall capital asset value on rented houses of 9.0% in the UK outside of prime central London and the South East.<\/p>\n
2010 saw no seasonal decline in demand for rented houses and flats as is usual in November and December, instead demand rose steadily and consistently throughout the year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
