A look at future house prices and rents based on a RICS survey

We look at predicted growth for house prices and rents based on a recent RICS sentiment survey

House prices and rental values are expected to rise across most of the UK over the next three months, based on the latest RICS sentiment survey.
All surveyors in the North and West Midlands thought rents would rise over the next 3 months. Confidence for house price growth highest in Yorkshire & The Humber, North West and London.
Expectations of house price growth have risen despite the interest rate rise in December, as stock levels remain close to historic lows.
The continued imbalance in supply and demand is also the driving force behind rental growth. National 12 month rental growth projections now stand at 4.5%.
