As we head towards the end of the year, it’s clear that the Birmingham property market is entering a period of transition. Both the sales and rental sectors are showing noticeable shifts, and understanding what’s happening right now can help buyers, sellers, landlords, and tenants make smarter decisions heading into 2026.
