This alternative method resolves issues with the accepted answer by accounting for rows that may have skipped values (such as fancy header sections in a document) as well as sampling the first N columns:

def next_available_row(sheet, cols_to_sample=2):
  # looks for empty row based on values appearing in 1st N columns
  cols = sheet.range(1, 1, sheet.row_count, cols_to_sample)
  return max([cell.row for cell in cols if cell.value]) + 1
