“A more buoyant sales market, particularly of larger properties, has had a significant effect on the rental market as supply has decreased significantly because owners of these properties now have the opportunity to sell quick. Consequently accidental landlords are leaving the market while new/expanding landlords are generally purchasing smaller properties. The net result is that rental prices are increasing, especially for larger properties, with short marketing times and hardly any voids. The opening of the Raith underpass and the ‘missing section’ of the M8 continue to improve accessibility and decrease travelling times to the Lanarkshire area.”
