The features we assume tenants are looking for and what actually ticks their boxes can be two very different things. To establish the most in-demand aspects, Rightmove examined more than 600,000 property listings, looking at what was mentioned in the property description in relation to the homes with the highest number of enquiries.
With three quarters of the year having passed (already!), we have a good amount of data on Wellingborough’s property market to look back at and hypothesise about what may happen in the coming months.
Between October 2022 and June 2023, the average asking price of properties for sale in Wellingborough remained above £270,000. In August this year, they have dropped to £264,334. From the peak to the current asking price, the drop is £13,423 (or 4.8%).
Subletting is a recurring subject in the world of rental property. For those who are not familiar with the term,subletting is when the original tenant named on the legal agreement moves out and rents the entire property to someone else. Alternatively, the original tenant stays in the property and rents out a room or multiple rooms. Unless the landlord has agreed to subletting, the act will be a breach of the tenancy agreement and constitutes grounds for eviction.
Despite the very steady start to the year, where Wellingborough asking prices remained at a very steadily level of around £276,600 for the first five months, we have now seen a three-month trend of falling asking prices from the peak of £277,653 in April this year to £265,861 in July.
