The finances of private tenants deteriorated in December, with nearly 12% of all rent unpaid or paid late.
The arrears were calculated as part of a monthly survey by the property firm LSL, and were up from total rent arrears in November of 10%.LSL said unpaid rent now amounted to £276m, the highest level since December 2009.
It said tenants' finances were being squeezed by higher unemployment and warned that arrears would become worse.
"Arrears have been rising since October as public sector spending cuts start to bite in many areas of the country," said David Newnes of LSL.
"With unemployment set to increase this year, and rents likely to rise once more in the spring, more tenants will be at risk of falling behind with rent payments."
