The housing market in the UK is experiencing a number of
key trend changes which mean the more people are living along and more are
renting a home for the long term, new research has found. Of the 43% of those
taking part in the Housing Futures Survey who are single and planning to move
in the next five years, some 75% expect to be living alone and 45% of those
aged 18 to 29 indicated they would consider living in a professionally managed
private rental unit. The research suggests that future housing types and
location decisions are being altered by access to technology. Nearly 36% of the
respondents who were intending to move listed broadband connectivity as
important or very important in their motivations for moving, and nearly 20%
listed mobile coverage. Read more on the Property Wire website.
