William Reeve, CEO of Goodlord, says:
“We’ve long believed that rental prices didn’t reach their ceiling last summer and that this year will bring new rental cost highs. The steady creep of price rises we’ve tracked in 2025 so far appears to bear this out. And whilst the data shows that the pace of these rent rises and the pressures of market demand can take on a strong regional flavour - meaning not all renters will be at the sharp end of these shifts - the overall picture is currently pointing to another year of record breaking rents.”
