If you're considering property investment in 2025, the Northampton rental market should absolutely be on your radar. Perfectly positioned between London and Birmingham, with direct rail links, strong tenant demand, and a growing local economy, Northampton has become a hotspot for savvy buy-to-let landlords and property investors. But not all areas offer the same return...

It's the dawn of a new year -- at this point, it's expected to have broke at least two New Year resolutions; it's an inevitability. If you're a homeowner, one resolution that you absolutely must stick to is keeping your property legally compliant. This new year, the Government's got some changes of their own that they're going to put in place in May 2026: the Renters Right Act.

on our property market breakdown series, In Your Street, we discuss how property prices have changed over a number of years. Let's take a Christmas Carol approach and explore years past; here is a breakdown on some notable areas to see how they develop over the years -- are properties in the area hot on the market, or have prices frozen solid?

In a previous post, we'd discussed how a strong community attracts long-term tenants, so if you're searching for a good investment opportunity, then this isn't a terrible pick! But given how fantastic the homes are, we wouldn't blame you if you bought a property to keep all to yourself.

Are you aware of the upcoming changes for Landlords and Tenants for the Renters Rights Act, starting from May 1st 2026? There's a lot of complicated legislation to learn -- even if you think you know it all, you might not! Take our 7 question quiz to reveal surprising answers to common questions!

This week, we're In Your Street in the NN3 3 area! An always-popular area filled with potential for investors, and a great area for people to live. It's low crime rate, high quality properties and links to the M1 and Town centre makes for a solid location. With sizeable properties, strong rising prices and high rental yields, you can't go wrong with this spot. This particular property boasts from multiple bedrooms, a garage, parking and a sizeable garden.

  Welcome back to another In Your Street, this week we’re covering this property in Derngate Lofts, in the NN1 1 postcode area. However, as you can see in the video, the area occupied by NN1 1 is quite small, comprising mainly of the town centre itself. Which, as you can imagine, is more so occupied by businesses that by accommodation. So, we’ll expand our search outward slightly and look at the NN1 2 area as well.

With the Renters Rights Law passing in 2025, there's a lot you need to know... Luckily, we've been covering many of the upcoming changes happening with the renters rights law in our Renters Rights guide. But the most pressing question, before you even begin letting the property, is this: How will the Renters' Rights Law change how to reference tenants?

This week, we’re exploring this lovely property in West Cotton Close, in the NN4 8 Area.   We’ve actually covered the NN4 8 Area about a year ago in a separate video, which you can find a link to below. But West Cotton is situated a better location – arguably one of the most convenient in Northampton – so let’s see how the market fairs for sales and lettings and compare it to what it was a year ago

It's recently been confirmed that the Renters Rights Bill will be coming into law within the coming months. Although there are certainly some good changes with the renters rights bill that will enable tenants and landlords to have a longer and more fruitful relationship, it does leave a lot of Landlords with concerns on how to manage if the tenant they have isn't cooperating.

Ghost Listings, in this case, are homes that appear on the market, suddenly disappear, and then return to the market some months later. It's not a spooky spectre you're seeing, but a smart Owner / Agent understanding the online algorithm and buyer behaviours. There's various reasons why you would want to do this

With the changes in the Renters Rights bill, all tenancy agreements will be moved from fixed terms to periodic. This means all contracts are on a month-by-month basis. So a tenant can give notice to leave at any time - as long as they are following the law.

Interest goes up in the fall - a sentence that might sound counter-intuitive, but it's true! With autumn leaves falling and a subtle dew resting on the trees - the crunch of cold fields and the bitter breeze of a chilly morning - the countryside is at its most beautiful; it seems buyers are willing to pay extra for the illustrious call of nature.

A tidal wave of changes is going to come crashing like a storm into the rental market. And if you're not prepared, then you may find yourself being swiftly swept away.

Throughout the UK, the percentage of homes available to rent have increased by 19%, according to statistic provided from DataLoft and sourced from Zoopla. How does this affect the Northampton rental market? Let's first breakdown their statistics:

Love it or hate it, the Christmas / holiday season is fast approaching. Can you hear those sleigh bells starting to ring-ting-tingling for another Northampton Christmas! A naturally expensive and busy time for all. And, most importantly for the property market, the time when everyone is in a rush to get their properties completed.
