After a downturn last year, the size of the UK property management industry is poised for growth in 2025, seeing total annual turnover approach £33 billion.

That’s the claim from one of the operators in the market, Adiuvo, which has studied market size based on annual revenue for the UK property management industry and found a 5.6% contraction in 2024, which saw the sector’s combined annual revenue total £32.16 billion.

But this year the industry is expected to recover with a projected increase of 2.5%.

This growth will take the total value of the UK property management services sector to £32.95 billion, up roughly £800m on the year. It also marks ten-year industry growth of 16.3%.

Looking ahead, the outlook remains positive. Forecasts suggest a further increase in 2026, with market revenue reaching an estimated £33.47 billion, representing year-on-year growth of 1.6%.

In 2027, the industry is expected to expand again, albeit at a slightly slower pace, reaching £33.98 billion with growth of 1.5%.

An Adiuvospokesperson says:“While the property management sector has experienced periods of volatility in recent years, including a notable dip in mid-pandemic 2021, the current trajectory suggests a steady return to growth. This upward trend reflects both stabilising demand and increasing emphasis on professional, round-the-clock management of residential and commercial properties.

“This analysis highlights not only the scale of the opportunity in the years ahead, but also the importance of innovation and responsiveness in meeting the changing needs of landlords, tenants and property owners across the UK.

“As the market grows, so do expectations. There is increasing demand for around-the-clock responsiveness, robust infrastructure and scalable solutions that can adapt to changing legislation, technology and client needs. At Adiuvo, we believe that those who can combine innovation with operational excellence will be best placed to thrive in this evolving landscape.”
