Tenant demand hits an all-time high confirming that investment property remains a strong market for existing and prospective investors.

The proportion of landlords reporting increasing tenant demand reaches an all-time high of 62%.

Current industry research has revealed that the strong tenant demand seen during last year has continued into 2022 after growing to the highest level recorded since 2011.

Figures for the first quarter of the year suggest that numbers of people seeking privately rented homes have grown consistently throughout the course of the Covid pandemic.

The 62% of landlords who reported increasing tenant demand in Q1 2022 is double that of the same period a year ago and almost four times the level reported in Q1 2020 when only 16% of landlords felt that demand was growing.

As part of the most recent research, over 700 landlords were asked to assess tenant demand over the previous three months.

A ‘significant increase’ was seen by over a third, 34%, of respondents, with a further 28% reporting slight increases. Perceived decreases in tenant demand, both significant and slight, were recorded by just 3% of landlords, the lowest on record.
