About this data
These figures describe the Saltdean & Rottingdean 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 Saltdean & Rottingdean rental market is predominantly flat-led, with houses and bungalows making up a smaller share of what's available. Activity feels fairly typical for early July — the summer moving season is underway, and the pace varies noticeably by size. One-beds are letting inside ten days at a median of around £1,150 a month, and two-beds — where there's a good choice of stock — are typically around £1,575, though they're taking about a month to find tenants, which suggests some selectivity at that level. Three-beds are moving more briskly, around a fortnight, with a median closer to £2,850.
Larger properties are a different story. Four-bed houses are taking a month or more to let, and the handful of five-plus-bedroom homes have seen little recent movement — too thin a sample to read with confidence, but worth noting if you're holding something at that end.
For investors, gross yields on flats are running at around 7%, with houses in the 5% to 6% range depending on type.
