Brits renting spend nearly £700 on décor to make rentals feel like home

Renters are spending almost £700 on ‘removable’ décor to help their house feel more like a home during their tenancy. A study of 1,000 private renters found they are enhancing their spaces with adhesive tiles (16 per cent), hooks for hanging plants (17 per cent), and removable wallpaper (16 per cent). While 14 per cent are installing wireless stick-on wall sconces, and 23 per cent have added smart lighting in the home. It also emerged 70 per cent have made updates to personalise their property – with 86 per cent saying the time and money spent is worth it. But it’s not just about aesthetics – 28 per cent are also focused on making their home more energy efficient. Of those, 38 per cent have got a smart meter installed to better manage energy use, with 31 per cent switching to energy-efficient appliances, and 22 per cent choosing their preferred energy provider, according to the research commissioned by Smart Energy GB.
