Average UK rents rose between July and September but
failed to keep pace with inflation, according to the latest edition of The
Deposit Protection Service (The DPS) Rent Index. The stats show the average increased
by £7 (0.91%) to £778: less than half the rise in inflation (1.90%) during the
period – with some 32% of wages now spent on rent. Two consecutive quarterly
increases have seen rents reach the highest value since the Rent Index launched
in 2017 following a period of decline during 2018. Read more on the DPS
website.
