The rental market continues to shift, with new rules, rising rents and affordability pressures all shaping landlord decisions. July is a good time to review your property and your plans.

The UK property market is entering a new phase—one defined not by sharp shocks, but by gradual, meaningful shifts in behaviour. The latest data surrounding landlord activity offers a clear indication of this transition, revealing a market that is recalibrating in response to both economic pressures and legislative change.

The UK property market remains under close watch following confirmation from Prime Minister Andy Burnham that there will be no changes to stamp duty in this year’s Budget.

With the abolition of Section 21 under the Renters’ Rights Act 2025, landlords, tenants, and property professionals alike are facing a major shift in how possession of rental properties is handled. Those who have relied on previously served Section 21 notices must act immediately—or risk losing their ability to use them altogether.
