The Fundamentals of the Leicester Student Property Market

The Article 4 Direction is restricting the conversion of family homes into houses of multiple occupation. The Article 4 Direction is a ruling passed by government which effectively requires special planning permission to be granted on the conversion of a single family home into a rental property of three or more unrelated tenants.

In cities like Nottingham, Leicester and Newcastle family homes were rapidly being converted to student let properties thereby allowing landlords to reap far higher rental returns. These City Councils have adopted the ruling in order to protect the number of single family homes. The impact could see a drop in supply of student accommodation and while demand continues to grow it will lead to increases in rental income and low vacancy rates due to the increased demand.
