Bracknell Lettings Update

The local housing market in Bracknell

Our market update in April

Our message hasn’t changed one bit over the past six months or so. We are still operating within a market whereby the supply simply isn’t anywhere near enough to meet the demand. There is a real shortage of property available at the moment, in particular houses with gardens which are still proving to be the most popular. Because of these factors, not only are we able to drive the rents higher, but also have a broader selection of tenants available. Given the extension of stamp duty land tax being reduced/void until the end of June this is a trend we expect to see continuing.

Another topic that seems to be getting more attention online and in the press is whether tenants should be allowed to have pets in all properties. Naturally for landlords there will be some concern regarding the wear and tear on their property, however pet ownership is up 3.2 million in the UK since the start of COVID, so disregarding pets will significantly reduce your audience if you are a landlord. Our advice is to look at every scenario on a case by case basis and consider the size of your property and consider the size of the family and potential pets moving to see if it’s something that would work.

The local area of Bracknell

Why Bracknell is a great place to live!

The pleasant town of Bracknell is located approximately 11 miles south-east of Reading and has been voted one of the top 20 places to live in Great Britain. Bracknell is also in close vicinity to Ascot, Crowthorne, Camberley, Maidenhead and Windsor, allowing easy access to a plethora of excellent facilities.

Bracknell town centre has recently undergone a £240 million-pound redevelopment programme to create a new modern town centre which is so impressive it won 'Development of the Year' at the Revo Awards in 2017. Regenerating the town has provided people living in and around the area with over 70 new shops and restaurants in the new shopping centre, The Lexicon. The redevelopment has also provided 1,000 new homes, a new police station and bus station. A large part of the development was focused on improving the current High Street buildings and the restoration and extension of a local landmark – The Bull public house. Since undergoing development, Bracknell has risen in the retail rankings to number 33, from 255 prior to redevelopment.
