Rents have been climbing for the same steady rate they have for years now. Shrinking supply meets increasing demand. Nothing about that has changed recently. The recent reforms did swap out some landlords for homeowners. It didnt undo the war on affordable housing it just prevented landlords from profiting as much from it. Which is a good thing, even if some media outlets owned by landlords do like to pretend that euthanizing the buy to let landlord is bad renters.
