Nathan Emerson, CEO at Propertymark, comments:

“Despite a myriad of challenges, 2025 has proven progressive for the housing market. We have witnessed inflation track downward to 3.2% and four base rate cuts throughout the year, all of which will contribute towards enhanced consumer confidence and affordability.

“There have been occurrences throughout the year however which have brought market instability, such as the lead up to Stamp Duty threshold changes last April across England and Northern Ireland, and on the lead up to the Autumn Budget where we witnessed people take a deliberated view until fiscal plans for the forthcoming year were clear.

“The housing market continues to provide a substantial contribution towards wider economic growth, and it is vital that the UK Government and the devolved administrations remain switched on regarding all ambitions to meet their respective home building targets.

“Although 2025 has been a year of transition, we now sit in a much healthier position that only twelve months ago, with the housing market displaying strong potential for the forthcoming year ahead.”

Propertymark Annual Rental Price Report 2024/25

2025 has seen vast evolution within the rental market, with a combination of ever growing consumer demand, new legislation aimed at bringing greater levels of tenant protection and increased legal frameworks that landlords must adhere to.

This report examines how agreed rental prices have fluctuated during the period between January 2024 and December 2025, and how the supply of rental properties has altered during this time.

Headline figures

 

  • The average number of rental properties new to the market per month in 2024 stood at 99,739.
  • The average number of rental properties new to the market per month for 2025 stood 108,348
  • The overall average let agreed by tenants per month throughout the UK in 2024 was £1,511
  • The overall average let agreed by tenants per month throughout the UK in 2025 was £1,505

The number of rental properties being newly marketed throughout 2025 stood at 1,300,514. It is however vital to consider this figure represents several key elements, including the rate of ‘tenant churn’ within the rental sector, and the fact this is not a direct measure of additional or new properties coming into circulation.

When comparing average let agreed prices per month, the sum is broadly static compared to the year beforehand. It is important, however, to consider this figure is wholly reliant on the type and location of properties available during any given month and/or year.

For 2025, the highest level of average let agreed was in October, with a sum of £1,629. October also proved to be the busiest month when looking at fresh rental properties coming to the market too.

The lowest average let agreed in 2025 was in January where the figure stood at £1,459, with December being the most subdued month for new properties being marketed for rent with only 78,806 new dwellings being listed.

Nathan Emerson, CEO at Propertymark, comments:

“The UK’s private rental sector has undergone profound changes over the last twelve months, with the Renters’ Rights Act in England and the Housing (Scotland) Act being two of the most recent and notable examples.

“Such changes have brought much needed new protections for many tenants, however, have added additional pressures on landlords in terms of more complex tax frameworks and future demands regarding aspects such as energy efficiency.

“As we head into 2026, it may well become a year for adaptation, as various new legislation is implemented in phases throughout the year. The rental sector is likely to face challenges and achievements in likely close measure; however, it remains imperative the sector attracts new long-term investment to keep pace with ever growing demand.”
