This week's trends Plan Ahead

Renters squeezed, supply under strain

Commuter belts beat big-city markets

Value suburbs are outperforming cities. Rightmove’s data shows Falkirk and Manchester fringes leading growth this year, while wider research finds commuter areas outpacing 12 major cities, including London slipping.

Policy shifts could reshape housing

From stricter HMO controls cutting shared-home approvals to talk of a proportional property tax replacing council tax, rules are in flux. New Land Registry IDs unlock cleaner sales data for market insight.
