About this data
These figures describe the Kemptown 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 June 2026 and refreshed regularly — all are indicative, and individual properties vary.

Get a valuationThe Kemptown market is moving at two speeds this late spring. One-bedroom flats are letting around a week at £1,250 a month, and two-beds are finding tenants inside a fortnight at £1,600. Studios are taking longer — about a month at £800 — while three-bed homes at £2,150 are letting in two to three weeks. Four-beds, at £2,500, are taking closer to a month, and the larger five-bedroom stock is quiet enough that it's hard to read reliable pace.
The letting pattern is straightforward: compact one- and two-bedroom homes are absorbing most of the activity, while the smaller studio segment and the larger four- and five-bedroom properties are seeing slower take-up. The market remains flat-led, and those flats are doing the bulk of the work.
For investors, gross yields sit around 7% on flats and between 5.5% and 6% on houses, depending on type.
