Lettings market wobbling according to figures from board company

Data from Agency Express suggests that the lettings market is wobbling with a sharp decline in its usual measure - the number of ‘To Let’ and ‘Let By’ boards.

 

April’s results show a significant fall in both categories with national figures for new listings ‘To Let’ down 19.7 per cent while properties ‘Let’ were down 22.1 per cent.
