UK Rent Continues to Climb: HomeNow UK Offers a Solution

According to the latest ONS figures, the average UK private rent has increased by 8.6% year-on-year in June 2024. The average monthly rent now stands at £1271, which is £101 higher than 12 months ago.

Although this is slightly down from the 8.7% annual growth the month before, it highlights the ongoing rise in rent costs. The highest yearly spike in UK rents was recorded in March 2024, with a 9.2% increase on average.

The June figures, sourced from the latest Price Index of Private Rents (PIPR), provide key information for buy-to-let investors.

Average rent in England was £1310 in June 2024, up 8.6% (£104) from a year earlier.

On a regional level, the North West saw the highest rent inflation outside of London, with an average increase of 9.5%, while the North East had the lowest annual inflation at 5.9%.
