During the start of the pandemic, rents of homes in London plunged to their lowest, whilst those of outside London soared as people flocked to the countryside in hopes of finding more space and cheaper deals. However, as per the latest data analysis from online search experts, MediaVision, the trend now seems to be reversing.
