With pressures mounting on Scotland’s private rented sector, many landlords and investors are asking: what next for Edinburgh’s rental market?
In episode 101, Charlie Innes of Glenham Property joins us again to explore some of the key trends shaping the capital in 2025. We discuss how demand varies across property types, the impact of international students and professionals post-Brexit, and how Build to Rent schemes are shifting tenant expectations.
We also examine investor strategy in today’s high-interest, high-regulation environment. Is the focus still on capital growth or is yield taking priority? And what kinds of improvements or refurbishments are delivering the best returns for landlords operating on tighter budgets?
Navigating EPC Uncertainty and Energy Efficiency
With uncertainty around EPC legislation and the ripple effects of Short Term Let licensing, we also ask whether landlords are adapting their approach and what signs there are of longer-term change, including consolidation in the sector.
Whether you’re an experienced investor or considering entering the market, this episode offers valuable insight into how Edinburgh’s PRS is evolving and where the opportunities and challenges may lie in the years ahead.
