Lutterworth rental market, what landlords need to know
Lutterworth is a market town in Harborough District, Leicestershire, positioned at one of the best motorway intersections in the Midlands — the M1/M6 junction (J20/M1 and J1/M6) is less than 2 miles from the town centre. Rugby is 8 miles south-west; Leicester is 14 miles north; Coventry is 16 miles south-west. The town is the gateway to the Magna Park logistics complex, one of Europe's largest distribution parks, which employs tens of thousands of logistics workers and generates significant demand for rental accommodation in the surrounding area. Property values are moderate relative to the strength of rental demand. The town has seen accelerating population growth driven by logistics employment and is a consistently active buy-to-let market for landlords targeting working professional renters.
