Don’t Miss the Autumn Rush – Get Your Property on the Market Now

Summer may have been busy, but we’ve seen a natural slowdown compared to the first half of the year as many people took a step back during the holiday season.

Summer may have been busy, but we’ve seen a natural slowdown compared to the first half of the year as many people took a step back during the holiday season.

Now, as we move into autumn, momentum is building fast. We’re already seeing a clear rise in enquiries and more properties coming onto the market — a sign that the next wave of activity is just beginning.


This means one thing: if you’re thinking of selling, now is the time to act. Waiting too long could mean your property gets lost in the crowd once the market is flooded with new listings.

By getting your property valued and prepared now, you’ll be one of the first to benefit from renewed buyer demand.

Potential Property Tax Changes Ahead of the Budget

Chancellor Rachel Reeves faces tough choices ahead of November’s Budget, with reports suggesting major changes to property taxation. Proposals under discussion include altering capital gains tax relief on higher-value homes, abolishing stamp duty (potentially replacing it with a new levy on home sales above £500,000), and reforming the council tax system. While these measures could raise billions, critics warn they may slow property transactions and create further complexities. Nothing has been confirmed yet, but we will be watching closely.

The implementation of the Renters' Rights Act marks one of the most significant shifts the private rented sector has experienced in a generation. For landlords, the challenge is no longer simply understanding what has changed. It is understanding how those changes affect individual properties, tenancies, and long-term investment strategies.

The rental market remains active in May 2026, but conditions are changing. Demand is still strong, rent growth has eased, and tenant expectations are rising. Here is what landlords should be thinking about now.

Buying a home can feel easier when you know your budget, priorities and next steps. With mortgage costs still influencing decisions, preparation is one of the biggest advantages buyers have.

The rental market continues to shift, with new rules, rising rents and affordability pressures all shaping landlord decisions. July is a good time to review your property and your plans.
