The
rental index for Belvoir Quarter 1 2017 has been released which looks at the
rents Belvoir offices are achieving across the UK. It is produced by property professional Kate
Faulkner and is available at www.belvoir.co.uk.
The
overall trend for the UK shows the average rent of a property is at an all time
high and up 4.5% versus Q1 2016.
Looking
more locally at the East Midlands our rents in Q1 2017 have recorded a 7.5 %
increase when compared to the same period in 2016. This certainly reflects what we are seeing in
Bingham.
The
reasons for the increase can be due to the larger number of higher value
properties, which when coupled with less rental stock in the market can
artificially raise the year on year rental increase.
However
we are seeing a new trend in offices throughout the UK. There are increases in rents where there is a
low availability of properties on the rental market. This is something we see in the Bingham and
surrounding villages. The demand from
tenants and the lack of supply of rental property is certainly increasing the
rents we can achieve.
