“Q2 has seen an increase in the demand for properties from local, and international students but there is still a shortage of available properties in the PRS, with viewings reaching capacity quickly. Landlords were thankful of the end of the rent increase cap, 1st April – with rising costs of new legislative changes, the available chance to increase the rent slightly came as welcome news. We have noticed that some longer term landlords are exiting the market due to the increasing pressures from the new legislation given by the Scottish Government, and the increasing mortgage rates.”
