Renting a Flat in Swansea comes with many benefits. Find out why more people are looking for flats to rent and how the Belvoir Swansea letting agent team can help you find your perfect Swansea flat.
More people are now choosing to rent a flat in Swansea. UK wide, thousands of people are choosing to rent a flat in their location of choice. This was a key takeaway in this government report. For some, it makes perfect sense to rent a smaller, easy to maintain property in a location they like, at a price they can afford.

We work hard to find contract holders their ideal property to rent in Swansea. That includes flats to rent. You can see our list of available flats to rent in Swansea, including popular Swansea Marina flats, here.
Here, we look at five reasons why renting a flat in Swansea could be of benefit to you.
Renting A Flat In Swansea Could Be Ideal If You Are Between Homes
Are you about to sell your house but haven’t found a new place to live? Maybe your personal situation changed, and you need a home just for you in a suitable spot. A flat in Swansea could be the ideal solution. The benefit is that you will give yourself time to get organised, particularly if you are not yet ready to buy a new home.
Finding A Flat To Rent Can Help You To Save A Deposit To Buy A Home
Saving up a deposit for house is a tough task, but it can be done. Renting a flat in Swansea gives you the opportunity to save money but still have somewhere nice to live. Perhaps you’re living with a friend or relative and need somewhere to call your own before you get on the property ladder. A flat is a perfect solution to find your independence. The added benefit is that you are more likely to find a flat in an ideal location, saving money on commuting costs. Money that you can set aside to save for your deposit.
At Belvoir Swansea, we offer flats to rent in prime Swansea locations. This includes Swansea Marina flats as well as flats in the Copper Quarter and Swansea city centre.
Is a flat in Swansea a more flexible choice for you?
Everyone is different, and their housing needs will be different too. So, a flat could be the more suitable choice for you.
- Perhaps you don’t feel ready to be a homeowner yet.
- Perhaps you don’t want a garden.
- Perhaps you want to live in a certain area, but the cost of buying is out of reach.
- Perhaps your job means you move around so a short-term rent is ideal.
If you buy a house, you will be investing for the long-term – and that may not be right for you at this time. Renting a flat in Swansea can help provide the flexibility that you need.
Do you need to keep costs low?
Renting a flat could prove beneficial if you need to keep an eye on your budget and don’t have spare money for decoration and maintenance. If work needs to be done, this will be the landlord’s responsibility. Belvoir Swansea offers landlord maintenance services.
There will be some responsibilities and costs that you will have to take care of, but you won’t have the usual maintenance costs associated with owning a home. You also won’t have costs when going through the process of buying, including conveyancing, searches, and buildings insurance.
Renting A Flat Can Carry Less Risk
It’s fair to say that some people think buying a house is a risk. Buying a house is a big commitment and can be a big financial risk. For most home owners this will not be an issue. However, if you are unsure and “risk averse”, then perhaps renting is better for you right now. You won’t have to worry about property values because the property is not yours.
We deal with many people who are in two minds about renting or buying and what works for some will not work for others. But we are here to help and will use our experience and knowledge to help you make the right decision for you.
