Areas such as Solihull (postcode: B91, B92) have seen an increase in average house prices, with a rise of 3.5% in the past year. This trend is expected to continue as demand for properties in desirable locations remains high.

The average rent for a one-bedroom apartment has increased by 5% in the past year. While there is a variety of rental options available across the region, properties in desirable locations can be snapped up quickly. Renters should be prepared to act fast and have all necessary documentation ready when applying for a rental property in competitive areas.
