One in Six Rental Properties Sold as Landlords Exit Market

Landlord Today reports that one in six rental properties have been sold as landlords leave the market. The data is sourced from property consultancy TwentyEA.

This trend may have implications for letting agents and inventory clerks, as the reduction in available rental properties could affect demand for their services. The report highlights ongoing changes in the UK rental property sector.
