As borrowing costs climb back to levels last seen in late 2023, landlords are being forced to rethink not only how they finance their portfolios, but how they sustain profitability in a more challenging and complex market.

The UK housing market continues to evolve, and recent data reveals a significant shift in how homes are owned and occupied across the country. According to new research by Savills, the UK’s private rented sector (PRS) recorded its largest decline this century in 2025, falling by £48 billion in value as many buy-to-let landlords exited the market.

The UK’s buy-to-let sector has been under sustained pressure in recent years, but fresh data suggests that while landlords continue to leave the market, the pace of this so-called “exodus” may finally be beginning to ease. This shift is worth paying close attention to as it signals changing sentiment among investors and rise of new opportunities.
