Yields rise across all regions

Indicative gross yields remain attractive in the rental market. Based on an analysis of apartments sold and rented in 2023, the indicative gross yield is 6.7%. This is up from 5.3% in 2021.

Yields are currently strongest in the North West (8.5%) and have risen across all regions of England and Wales compared to 2021. 66% of landlords are planning on keeping their lettings portfolio the same in the next few years, and 13% plan to increase.

The top reasons for increasing the portfolio are to build an investment business (26%), to be a pension (22%) and that it is the safest place to invest (17%). Rental growth is forecast to outpace the sales market over 2024, with a forecast rise of 5%.
