What’s happening in the North-east rental market?

Juliet Livingstone, Northwood Inverurie Branch Manager, shares her insight following the latest Citylets Q2 2026 Scottish Private Rental Sector Report.

"The market across the North-east has remained stable, with steady demand and moderate growth in rental values. In Aberdeenshire, properties are letting quickly, with the average time to secure a tenant now under 30 days.

"Family homes are proving particularly competitive, while energy efficiency and running costs are increasingly influencing tenant decisions. We’re also seeing growing demand for rural homes from tenants relocating for work and looking for more outdoor space."

For landlords, understanding these local trends is key to making informed decisions in a changing market. Read our blog with Juliet’s local insight here: https://loom.ly/1HirQB4

Think a defective Notice to Leave means you’re in the clear? Think again...
A recent Upper Tribunal decision is an important reminder for Scottish landlords and letting agents: a technical defect in a Notice to Leave may not be enough to defeat a Wrongful Termination claim.
Here’s what the decision means in practice and why how a tenant is misled into leaving could matter just as much as whether the notice was technically valid.

BKF discuss the technical defect in the notice to leave.
