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 September 2026 and refreshed regularly — all are indicative, and individual properties vary.

Get a valuationKemptown's rental market has been moving steadily through the summer, with one- and two-bedroom flats doing the bulk of the work. The market is overwhelmingly flat-led — houses appear now and then but are relatively thin on the ground. One-beds, sitting at a median of £1,325 a month, are letting in around a week, which is a solid pace for August. Two-beds at £1,775 a month are moving almost as quickly — inside ten days — suggesting that mid-range flats remain the most consistent performers in this neighbourhood. Studios at around £900 a month are taking a little longer, around a fortnight, which is still reasonable.
Three-beds are taking about a month to let, and the handful of larger properties are a small enough sample that it's hard to draw firm conclusions — worth bearing in mind if you hold something at that end of the market.
For investors weighing up purchase prices against rental income, flats are currently showing gross yields in the region of 7.5%, with houses running notably lower.
