Rents Fall In December, but Prices Expected To Rise In 2015

Rents fell in December, with month-on-month falls across much of the UK according to figures from HomeLet, which processes references for around 350,000 tenants a year. But the company said that the decline was largely attributable to seasonal factors and that year-on-year figures still showed a rise. During 2014, it said, average rents in UK rose by 6.6%. HomeLet found that average monthly rents fell from £874 to £867 in December, the fourth month running in which rents have registered declines. Rents nationally peaked at £921 in August, but have fallen by 5% since then.  Read more on the Homelet website.
