Forth News quizzes rental expert

Forth News reporter Bryan Rutherford has been investigating rental prices in Edinburgh. Forth News can reveal the average cost of leasing a property is £860 a month. That's an increase of more than 5 per cent on the figure around a year ago, and is over £100 above the Scottish average. Demand for rental properties across Edinburgh has more than doubled in a decade, and property experts are warning of a shortage in supply. Forth News is being told benefit claimants are most at risk of being priced out of the market. Forth News reporter Bryan Rutherford speaks with Dan Cookson who's Head of Research at Lettingweb.
