Many Tenants Struggle to Find Suitable Homes Despite Affordability

A quarter of tenants still feel landlords hold the upper hand, despite the introduction of the Renters Rights Act. This is according to new research from LRG, as reported in the Spring 2026 Lettings Report.

The report is based on responses from 650 landlords and tenants across England and Wales. It highlights that both landlords and tenants are experiencing the current market from very different perspectives.

This information may be relevant for UK letting agents and inventory clerks monitoring tenant sentiment and market dynamics.
