Big Six Residential Development Report - Summer 2025 (Birmingham)
JLL's Big Six Residential Development Report for Summer 2025 analyzes residential development trends across six UK cities (Birmingham, Bristol, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Leeds, and Manchester), finding average annual price growth of 1.7% and rental growth of 2.1% across these markets, with Birmingham leading in both metrics and over 14,500 BTR units in its pipeline. Key findings include a 64% increase in BTR investment in H1 2025 versus the five-year H1 average, normalization of rental growth from 4.2% in December 2024 to 2.1% currently, removal of Scotland's temporary rent cap legislation on 1 April 2025, and development viability challenges from building safety regulations and planning restrictions impacting new home completions despite strong underlying demand for urban housing.
