“Q3 saw a strong HMO market and the professional (1 and 2 bed) market consolidated well, with rents settling after robust post-rent-control (ended 31 Mar) rises. New business grew well with most arising from landlords looking to retain the property but move elsewhere, and some ex-STL properties too, but less than expected. Time-To-Let (TTL) periods have eased out again too but demand remains strong. Confidence in the PRS from landlords is growing again following the end of ill-considered regulations. The sector proved that it supports the economy and housing market best when there is less government intervention.”
