About this data
These figures describe the Hove rental market— typical (median) rents by bedroom, how long homes are taking to let, overall demand, and an estimated gross yield. Rents and days-to-let are drawn from current and recently-let comparable listings in the area; we use medians rather than averages, so a handful of unusual listings don’t distort the picture. Gross yield is a year’s rent against the typical recent sale price for the same property type, matched by bedroom count (the Land Registry doesn’t record bedrooms), with the headline figure blended across property types by their share of the local rental market. Sale prices are from HM Land Registry Price Paid. Figures are current as of July 2026 and refreshed regularly — all are indicative, and individual properties vary.

Get a valuationThe Hove rental market is moving steadily through early summer. One-bedroom flats — which make up the backbone of available stock — are letting in around a week at a median of £1,300 a month, and two-beds are following close behind at £1,750, typically going in a fortnight or so. Studios sit at £950 and are also clearing in roughly a fortnight. The market is overwhelmingly flat-led; houses come up occasionally, but they're a small part of what's available.
Three-bedroom properties are letting at a median of £2,250 and moving within a couple of weeks, which is respectable for that size. Larger homes — four beds at around £2,850 — are thin on the ground, and five-plus bedroom properties are taking a month or more to let, which reflects both limited demand at that price point and a wide spread in what's on offer.
For investors considering flat-style stock, gross yields are running at around 6% — reasonable for a coastal town with strong sales values underpinning the numbers.
