Baby Boomer Landlords Lose Confidence as PRS Divides by Age
A survey of 276 UK landlords has found the private rented sector dividing by age, with older landlords losing confidence and preparing to sell. Younger and larger landlords, by contrast, are planning to expand.
The survey, conducted in September, asked landlords to rate their confidence in being a landlord in the UK over the next five years on a scale of 0 to 10.

The findings point to a potential shift in landlord demographics, with Baby Boomer landlords apparently falling out of love with buy to let. For letting agents, this could signal changes in portfolio composition and client base over the coming years.
