Finlayson Gore, Dundee - Eilidh Finlayson

“Q3 of 2026 has been a tough period for student lettings with many HMO properties still being marketed weeks into the new academic term, requiring landlords and agents to review expectations and market approach for the future of larger Dundee student properties. The waiting game for the December intake is underway but the pinch from PBSA is being felt across the city. Outwith the student sector, the PRS remains very strong with the average letting time for 1 and 2 bed flats returning to low levels and strong rents being achieved across the board.”
