Renting privately: Rental information (current)
Many information sources help to inform our Local Housing Strategy.
Through our Private Rented Database, we collect information from private rented sector adverts. This helps to build a picture of the private rented sector across Falkirk; it also helps us ensure that adverts contain the correct information.
We captured information relating to 210 adverts during April, May and June 2026 (Quarter 1). The information below relates to this quarter.
