Outlook for Sales & Rentals

Outlook for Sales & Rentals

Sentiment for pricing over the next three months is positive:

  • House prices and rental values are expected to rise across most of the UK over the next three months, based on the latest RICS sentiment survey.

  • All surveyors in the North and West Midlands thought rents would rise over the next 3 months. Confidence for house price growth highest in Yorkshire & The Humber, North West and London.

  • Expectations of house price growth have risen despite the interest rate rise in December, as stock levels remain close to historic lows.

  • The continued imbalance in supply and demand is also the driving force behind rental growth. National 12 month rental growth projections now stand at 4.5%.
