Letting a property has always come with responsibility, but today, it’s more complex than ever. With evolving legislation, increased compliance requirements and higher expectations from tenants, managing a property isn’t just about finding a tenant and collecting rent. It’s about protecting your investment and staying ahead of constant change.

Some moments stay with you forever. The first family Christmas in a new home. A garden made for summer evenings. More space for children to grow, or a quieter pace for a new chapter ahead.

The rental market remains active in May 2026, but conditions are changing. Demand is still strong, rent growth has eased, and tenant expectations are rising. Here is what landlords should be thinking about now.

We’re delighted to share the latest edition of At Home magazine with you, filled with a carefully selected collection of properties for sale and to let, local market insights and inspiration from the towns and villages we’re proud to represent.
