Are UK landlords really selling up, or is it just market noise? Richard Donnell, Research Director at Zoopla, unpacks the latest data on the private rental sector. We discuss why rental stock has barely grown, how smaller landlords are exiting while professionals expand, and why self managing landlords could be a key opportunity. Richard also explores the impact of the Renters’ Rights Bill and future energy standards, revealing how agents can gain an edge as trusted advisors.
