The rental market is still growing, but the way properties are managed has changed. August is a useful time for landlords to review tenancies, rent processes and record-keeping.

Average rents have risen sharply across the UK over the last five years, but the national headlines don't always reflect what's happening locally. This update examines regional rental trends, explains the reasons behind the figures, and highlights why every town, including Attleborough, has its own unique rental market story.
