Rental stock availability in England rises by 19.7%

The latest rental stock analysis from Adiuvo, the UK’s leading provider of 24/7 property management solutions, reveals that tenants in England are benefitting from a 19.7% increase in stock over the 12 months leading up to Q3 2025. In some areas of the country, annual stock growth easily exceeded 50%.

Adiuvo has analysed rental listings data in Q3 2025 and Q3 2024* to show how the number of available rental homes changed over the past year. The analysis shows that rental availability has increased by 19.7% year-on-year, with an estimated 114,178 properties listed for rent in Q3 2025 compared to 95,354 in Q3 2024.

This growth suggests improved accessibility for renters across much of the country, easing pressure in what has been a challenging market for tenants in recent years.

At the county level, East Sussex has seen the sharpest rise in rental stock, up by 69.7%, followed by Tyne and Wear at 59.9% and Cambridgeshire at 57.4%.

Other notable increases include Dorset (56.5%), the Isle of Wight (53.1%), City of Bristol (50.2%), West Yorkshire (48.7%), Norfolk (45.9%), West Sussex (43.9%) and Devon (39.7%).

Despite the national rise, a small number of counties recorded a decline in available rental homes.

The City of London saw the steepest drop at -31.3%, followed by Gloucestershire at -18.2% and Warwickshire at -12.3%.

Colin Stokes, Founder and MD of Adiuvo, commented:

“The increase in available rental stock across England is a welcome sign for renters, pointing to improved accessibility in many areas. A more balanced supply can ease competition and stabilise rental prices, which is good news for tenants.”

However, as stock levels grow, landlords must not overlook the importance of robust property management. Ensuring professional maintenance and prompt response to issues is vital for protecting property investments. It keeps tenants satisfied and prevents minor issues from escalating into costly repairs. At Adiuvo, we are seeing increased demand from landlords seeking 24/7 support to stay ahead of problems, ensure compliance, and maintain property standards in a rising market.”
