Working in Cardiff: what we plan for
Cardiff University and Cardiff Metropolitan drive a heavy student rental cycle, with tenancy handovers concentrated in late July through August. Local property mix: Bay-windowed Victorian terraces dominate Cathays and Roath, with newer flats around Cardiff Bay and the city centre.
Wales operates the Rent Smart Wales licensing scheme; standard 'occupation contracts' under the Renting Homes Act 2016.
