Former Ministry of Defence homes have hit the market for renters as research reveals a sharp decline the number of homes available to rent.
Research from Rightmove has revealed a nationwide disparity between properties available to rent - down by 26 per cent from last year - and demand from renters, which has risen by 6 per cent since 2021.
In a bid to create new homes to rent between Thirsk and Ripon, Annington has released its newest collection of two-bedroom terraced homes to rent this month.
The former MOD homes, in the Topcliffe area have been lightly refurbished by Annington to include new front doors, new floor coverings and freshly painted walls.
The traditional 1940s style homes are competitively priced for the area, available from £625pcm, with the first four homes having launched recently.

Andy Wilson, branch manager at Joplings estate agent Thirsk and Ripon, said: “Properties to rent tend to be snapped up within 24 hours of being posted, as Thirsk remains an extremely busy market.
"Tenants are drawn to the secure location and fair monthly prices, which could open the market to younger tenants renting for the first time, or young families hoping to stay in the area.”
Stacy Whitehead, marketing manager for Annington, added: “These properties will be managed by a dedicated and experienced team who will be on hand for any queries.
"We look forward to welcoming tenants into this close-knit community and making Thirsk their home.
"With such a demand for rental homes, we expect these properties to be really popular, anyone interested should enquire quickly to avoid missing out.”
