Activity within the letting market will heat up as we head into the warmer spring months, according to Nicky Stevenson, MD of Fine & Country.
Stevenson pointed out that if the predicted increase in activity transpires, it will come off the back of an already busy rental market, with a shift back to city-centre living and a rising interest in value-for-money and energy-efficient homes.
“The rental market continues to perform well and is expected to see a ramp up in activity as we transition from winter to spring,” the MD said. “Rental prices remain high, supported by demand outstripping the market’s persistent low stock levels.
