There are some property market statistics that are hugely important. This probably is not one of them, but it is still rather interesting. Across the UK, Tuesday is the busiest day for new rental listings, with the number of homes coming onto the market then gradually falling as the working week progresses. Unsurprisingly, very few new rental properties appear at the weekend.

 

For tenants in Attleborough, that gives a small clue as to when it might be worth keeping a particularly close eye on the portals. For landlords, it is an interesting glimpse into how letting agents tend to bring new stock to market during the week.

 

It does not mean Tuesday is automatically the best day to advertise a rental property, nor does it tell us how quickly those homes are then taken. That is the more interesting question. Later this year, I will be looking at which day of the week properties are most likely to leave the portals having been successfully let.
