Homelet's December 2016 Rental Data reports in the second half of the year they saw very slow rental growth.Homelet put the average UK rent at £892pcm, up from £877 this time last year and an annual growth for 2016 of just 1.7%.
This rate compares to the current Retail Prices Index (RPI) measure of inflation, which includes mortgage interest payments, which currently stands at 1.8%.
So, not really living up to the 'greedy landlord' narrative pushed by certain housing campaign groups.
