Dataloft Briefing notes | Addressing topical issues in UK rental markets

To explore the question of how long renters typically spend in a rented home, we analysed renters within the DRMA dataset who moved in 2020/21 and had previously rented in the private rented sector - ‘moving renters’. We were able to analyse how long they had lived at their previous address and to look for any variations across locations or age brackets.
