A very busy few months in the Bracknell rental market showed no signs of letting up in August!

For what is normally a busy period in the rental market anyway, the post-lockdown property demand meant August was busier than ever.

One thing that we are noticing is there is an incredible demand from tenants for properties with outdoor space. There are a few reasons for this..

Firstly, many of us have been restricted to our homes for long periods this year. Which seems to have placed even more importance on having your own garden or terrace/balcony alternative.

The second reason is that we have seen an increased number of tenants register that have pets and require outside space for them. As many landlords don’t accept pets, there is huge demand for homes that do.

                                           

We now move into the back end of the summer property market and there are no signs of demand slowing. If you are considering letting your property, investing or already have a rental property on the market with another agent, please contact us and take advantage of the volume of fantastic professional tenants we currently have registered who may be interested in your property.

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.
