Lender, Mortgage Trust, has expressed a view that the buy to let market will improve as house prices slow. In addition, they have said that an uncertain property market for owner/occupiers may mean less people looking to buy and more sitting on the fence, renting, and waiting for more stability before buying again in the next upward property cycle.
Our view
A logical view -with house prices becoming unstable means house prices but both owner/occupiers and buy to let owners!
Just because you may have rented, if the value has become static, or indeed may decrease, the yield from the investment may not be great compared even to just cash deposit accounts. Consider property carefully before investing.
