Aldermore Research Finds Tenant Demand Driving Up Rents

Rents are continuing to rise as tenant demand surges, according to new research published by Property118. Data from Aldermore reveals that two out of three renters are now paying more rent than they expected.

The report highlights that government legislation is also putting pressure on landlords. The news comes as the Renters’ Rights Act came into force on 1 May 2026.

For UK letting agents and inventory clerks, these findings underline the importance of monitoring rental trends and staying informed about legislative changes that may impact both landlords and tenants.
