The stamp duty holiday has invigorated the housing market, and many households are contemplating moving home. There is no denying the impact of the lockdown has caused many people and families to re-evaluate their home, and what they need to make the most out of life.

With the stamp duty holiday causing many people to consider moving home, it is likely many people will be active in the market in the next few months.

With so much focus on the property market, and the impact of the stamp duty holiday, we appreciate times are challenging for landlords. It might seem as though there is a significant push to move people towards homeownership and away from renting.

The stamp duty holiday has increased focus on the importance of price and saving money. This isn’t a surprise, most people like to save money, no matter what they buy. However, in the housing market, saving money is crucial.

There is no denying the COVID-19 pandemic has significantly impacted landlords and the rental market. Not only must landlords consider their personal finances and business finances, they should pay attention to the financial pressure tenants face.
