Annual December Dip In Rents Is Good News For Renters

December is a great month for people to find a rental property, claims one specialist.Property analyst Samantha Baden of Find a Property claims that monthly rents have dipped in the past month and that provides a wealth of opportunity for people looking to rent a new home.

Since the winter of 2008, rental prices have experienced a minor lull in the last two months of the year before rising again in the new year."This temporary dip in asking prices won't last long, and it's a great opportunity for potential tenants to agree a rate that's favourable in comparison to the rest of the year," she stated.

Overall UK rental prices fell by 1.5 per cent during November. The East Midlands, however, felt the highest fall, with prices dripping by 4.8 per cent.

Despite this the private rental market will remain strong well into 2012 according to the Residential LandlordsAssociation because there is currently not enough properties available to meet demand.

Rent Rise Expected This Winter

Increased demand and the rising cost of maintaining property mean private tenants in the UK are likely to face a rise in rental rates this winter, it is claimed.

One in five of landlords also claim their arrears have increased compared with the previous quarter, according to BDRC Continental’s quarterly Landlords Panel research.

It found that almost half, 45%, have increased rents in the last 12 months, while over a third, 34%, said they are likely to do so in the next six months. Landlords cite the strength of demand and the increased cost of running a property portfolio as the main drivers for rent rises.

Young couples, singles and Local Housing Allowance (LHA) claimants are the groups potentially most likely to be hit by rent rises in the private rental sector. When asked which groups of tenant they let to, landlords indicated that young couples and young singles account for the greatest proportion of their tenants, while LHA could also likely to be affected, as 37% of landlords cater for this segment of the market.

The potential rent rises are predicted at a time when almost half of landlords have experienced rental arrears in the last three months and almost three quarters, 72%, of those who have sought possession of their rental property were driven to do so by rent arrears. Other reasons for seeking possession include anti social behaviour, which contributed to nearly half of possessions.

However, one third of landlords have never sought possession of their rental property and landlords wait an average of almost four months to obtain possession and pay £866 in legal fees alone.

Private Rental Sector Not Enough to Boost Supply

The RLA report that the report on the private rented sector warns that current returns for landlords are very low once costs and inflation are taken into account, despite headline reports of rising rents. This is restricting the amount of new accommodation available to meet increasing demand.

Prepared by Michael Ball, Professor of Urban and Property Economics at the University of Reading, the Report highlights that rents remain significantly below their early 2008 levels, when adjusted for inflation. The Report used a new economic model fed with financial data from over 200 landlords.

Following a survey of landlords' costs and returns, the Report found that present rent levels do not cover landlords' expenses when all factors are taking into account, including refurbishment and borrowing costs, agents' and legal fees, voids and arrears, energy and safety certificates, repairs, depreciation and regulatory compliance.

Additionally the tax burden on the private rented sector is much more than on other types of tenure, averaging £1,000 a dwelling. Sharp real falls in the value of their properties over the past four years have pushed total annual returns for many landlords into negative territory.

Currently, almost 90% of English landlords are private individuals and couples and many residential investors would have been better-off if they had invested their money elsewhere.

The Report warns that the consequences for tenants will be "grim" as they face increasing rents and a chronic shortage of properties. Economic recovery will also be significantly held back by a lack of affordable rental housing. It calls for Government reforms to the taxation and regulatory treatment of the sector to alleviate pressures on rents.

Commenting ahead of the formal launch of his Report today (November 22nd) at the House of Commons at a meeting of the All Party Parliamentary Group for the Private Rented Sector, Professor Ball said:

"There is much hype about the private rented sector at present, but the reality is that landlord returns are generally poor and with a weak economy are likely to stay that way. Investment in the past was driven by rising house prices, now there is a need to rethink taxation and regulation so that rental returns come to the fore at rent levels that are affordable for tenants."

Responding to the report, Alan Ward, Chairman of the Residential Landlords Association commented:

"Professor Ball's report demonstrates clearly that the private rented sector is taken for granted - the returns are only superficially rewarding because few landlords account for the cost of regulation and taxation. Only the lack of an alternative secure investment, and the curse of capital gains tax, prevents many landlords from dis-investing just when more people need private renting because of lack of access to the owner occupied and social rented sectors."
